G'Day List Anne, that was funny. In fact the whole concept of holes has been quite amusing. All I can say is Holy Moly

That way, if the hole gets damaged in transit, the recipient already has a supply of replacement holes on hand.

I hope it was no mistake to make it public. The geographic coordinates I will publish as soon as the scientific work will have been done, for everyone having a fair chance to hunt his own hole. I plan, after classification is done, to slice the hole down. First 2500 people to chime in, will get a parthole for free. I'm only not sure yet, how to wrap them, for the holes not getting damaged during shipping. I will keep you update hourly about the distribution of the freeholes. Furthermore I offer to any university, high school and rest home etc. a piece of hole for free for scientific studies and educational purposes. All others already can pre-order on a moderate price-per-gram-rate. So don't hesitate, as a famous hole said once: "Holes are like money in the bank, money in the bank!!" -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: majbaerm...@web.de [mailto:majbaerm...@web.de] Gesendet: Sonntag, 23.

Void, nothing else. Leeding to nothing. Impressing. But a bit daemonic, no? If you'd be willing to part with it, I'd accept it as a freehole. And I'd sing your praise in eternity. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Altmann" <altm...@meteorite-martin.de> To: <meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Sunday, August 23, 2009 12:18 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] holes in stone meteorites >I found a hole thru a terrestial rock 3 years ago Me too. _http://kuerzer.de/terresthole_ (http://kuerzer.de/terresthole) ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
