Well, it just won’t stop raining here in Southern California. And some of the storms have been REALLY big gully washers. Not much to do but stay home, surf the net, or “spin yarns”. Here is a web site that I found interesting. Researchers out at Harper Lake in the Mojave Desert have placed brightly colored spheres in stream beds in an attempt to gauge the movement of sediment in that valley. Given all these recent storms, those “blue balls” should be all the way down to the Lake by now! Should you go to Harper Lake and find these “Blue Balls” on the shoreline, you should contact these researchers and let them know where you found their balls. The connection to meteorites is that many of us have had the same idea – to purposely place “marked rocks” on dry lakebeds and to follow their movement over the years. (The theory being that where ever the traveling “marked rocks” collected, that is where you should search for meteorites;-) We’re still finding on dry lakes BLACK GOLF BALLS from 1998, back when Paul Gessler was practicing his swing while calibrating his eyesight for distant black objects. :-) Bob V ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
