[meteorite-list] Wisconsin Trip, Addition
I also want to mention another few new friends I had the pleasure to make on the trip. And they would be Todd Parker, Jack Schrader,and Jim Baxter. Although I didn't get to spend as much time with them as I would have liked, I was very happy to finally meet them all (even if they did show me up with their big finds! ;-) Robert Woolard Sent from my iPhone __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] First recovered meteorite from the April 14, 2010 Wisconsin fireball.
Mike andMike,and Terry, Thanks a lot for the post guys. That's SO COOL!!! Less than a full day after the fireball. Way to go, Terry! Great field work. Good luck on finding more.

[meteorite-list] Guns
Lots of chatter on this. Please forgive this semi -off topic post. I am not making a "soap box triade " here. And for the record, I too grew up with guns as my Dad was a big hunter ( but I never liked killing anything so I never was a hunter). I do however own a pistol and a rifle, for whatever that has to say. About 2 years ago, my wife went to a local Firehouse Sandwich in a VERY "resectable" part of town at roughly 8:30 pm to get my 2 sons some late supper. The next thing I knew, my phone rang from that place. The voice on the phone said my wife was OK (thank God) but they had just been robbed by two armed "men". My wife had been forced to get down on her knees while a "man" held a gun to her head while the robbery was taking place. My life could have ended right there along with her's but thank God they did't pull the trigger! I have to say that after that, it entered my mind that I wished guns had NEVER been invented.

Re: [meteorite-list] A Riot of over 300 regmaglypts!
Graham, I think you absolutely did the right thing. Very nicely done, and a gorgeous stone!

I know some purists would rather see specimens in their 'found' state, but I just couldn't resist trying to bring this ugly duckling back to life. http://s760.photobucket.com/albums/xx244/Graham-Ensor/8kgUNWA/ Graham, Nr Barwell, UK __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Rocks from Space Picture of the Day - January 23, 2010
Michael B and Michael J, Great photos. Michael B, I got to see and hold that piece in my hands at West. The owner said he was NOT going to sell it for ANY price! Looks like he changed his mind. ;-). Congrats on adding that fantastic hammer to your collection. And Michael J, thanks again for making these great pics available for us all.

Re: [meteorite-list] Fwd: First cut at wind-shifted, predicted impact coordinates
You're right about that, Mike. Rob is a veritable genius at this, and his (and another personal friend and List member's ) unselfish willingness to share their radar/etc. work is much appreciated!

[meteorite-list] Spaceweather sighting - off topic

Re: [meteorite-list] Grimsby Day Three
Good morning Rob and Mike, I want to echo the comments made by Matthias. Thanks for taking the time to keep us all posted on the hunt. Good luck today!

No finds were made today by any of the hunters. It is helpful, although disheartening, information. We started our day with Patrick Herrmann among some of the more residential areas along the predicted line. The residents here are both interested and accommodating, allowing us access in with a compliance rate of 100%. The afternoon was spent in one of the many vineyards with Mike Farmer and Jim Strope followed by a meeting with the local news in which Farmer was featured and a request was made for all the local citizens to check their yards and contact the scientists from Western University if any stones are found. While it would usually be commonplace for the dealers to request the action, the fact of the matter is that science does not have a single specimen to test at this point and science needs to be done. We capped the evening at a local English restaurant and swapped stories. As we close the day, two new pieces of information have come to light which could put us on a new path.tomorrow will tell.

Re: [meteorite-list] A Rare Arizona Meteorite Find plus a possible "NEW" New Mexico Strewnfield
Hello Rubin, Congrats on the find! That's got to have been quite a rush. Can't wait to see what the final classification turns out to be. Good luck. Best wishes, Robert Woolard Sent from my iPhone On Oct 5, 2009, at 3:15 PM, Ruben Garcia wrote: Hi all, On September 24, 2009 I made (what I think will be) one of the most important Arizona meteorite finds of my life. I found what is probably a very rare achondrite meteorite. I say probably because no one can definitively say what type it is just by looking. It is currently being classified at ASU by Lawrence Garvie – so we will soon know. Here is a link http://www.mr-meteorite.net/ararearizonafind.htm This past weekend – in an attempt to find more - I put together a team of top notch meteorite hunters (Mike Miller, Sonny Clary, Stan Wall, Del Waterbury, Mike Morgan and Myself). Unfortunately, between the rains and mud we came up empty. After checking the weather (online) with a very helpful Susan Morrison we decided that in order to get out of the rain we needed to head east. Within a sort time we found ourselves in an area in New Mexico where no finds have been recorded. We hunted for an hour or two when I spotted Mike Morgan and Del examining a stone. Sure enough Del had found his first cold find and it was a very fresh looking meteorite! Mike Morgan was next to find one and then shortly after I did too. We think this may prove to be a “NEW” and very fresh New Mexico Strewn field. Time will tell as we return to hunt for more of these beautifully crusted specimens in the weeks to come.
