Hi Martin,  It is good to hear from  you.  I think I can safely speak for 
every one and say we missed Accretion  Desk!  Let us all know how you are doing 
in Montana.  Any meteorite  hunting grounds!

And list members, check out Martin's April Accretion  Desk.  There has been 
some recent discussion about oriented  meteorites.  How would you like to find 
the one pictured in the  article.  The Miller, Arkansas meteorite.  Great 
story!

Amazing pictures as usual Tom.  Thanks!

It is an honor to see your work since it seems every month you  go
where no man has gone before. Ever.

Now I assume you didn't  dismantle your son's Play Station 3 just to
get your wave plate? And as I  recall, last time I was at your house,
you had a Wii.  Maybe there's  something good hidden in there to hook
up to a microscope, and I know you  have a screwdriver.

Cheers and thanks again for the amazing  pics.

Hi List,  Each month I put a few images in  an article called Micro Visions.  
This month I show the use of an  inexpensive wave plate for meteorite thin 
section examination in cross polarized  light.  I have some very cool shots, 
but 
even better I have a series of 6  shots where I show one structure in bright 
field, standard full cross polarized  light and then in rotation with the use 
of this wave plate.

Please check  it out.
