Hi Geoff, This is a great way to expand interest in meteorites. People interested in geology are a natural audience to be fascinated by meteorites. I was only interested in minerals until someone let me hold a Sikhote-Alin. I was hooked instantly. I suspect (and hope) your great photos and articles will have a similar effect on many of those geology enthusiasts out there.
