[meteorite-list] Meteorite Show Lights Up Tasmania
http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/06/19/1055828430461.html Meteorite show lights up Tasmania The Age (Australia) June 19, 2003 A meteorite is believed to be responsible for a spectacular celestial light show in Tasmania. The Tasmania Police switchboard was inundated just after 8pm (AEST) Wednesday, with callers from the state's north and south reporting a trail of blazing light across the night sky. Seen from airport towers in Hobart and Launceston, it slipped under the radar of many local astronomers. University of Tasmania astrophysicist Dr Kym Hill, who is holidaying in the tiny north-eastern town of Mathinna, said he caught a fleeting glimpse of a bright yellow flash about 8.45pm. I probably only saw the end of it - the last 30 degrees of its trajectory which maybe lasted for two seconds, he said. It disappeared about 10 or 15 degrees off the horizon. He said it was probably a meteorite. It may have even been a satellite breaking up while re-entering the earth's atmosphere, Dr Hill said. Retired astrophysicist Dr John Greenhill, who missed the show, said he had been told about numerous sightings of bright lights followed by a sonic boom. It sounds very much to me like a meteorite entered the atmosphere and possibly even landed, he said. It's just an extreme example of a falling star. I have only ever seen one or two in my lifetime. They are not all that common. Most of the so-called falling stars are actually meteorites. They often burn out before they hit the ground. __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

"Don't do the crime if you can't do the time" Now that is funny. anyways I wanted to tell youI can't believe I could be so dumb. To think that Norton could even do something like that. Dam I should of calledyou first to find out if that could even be true. I don't even know where a thought like that even came from. BoyifI geta crazy thought like that again, I'll be should to give you a call to see if it could even be true. I'm sorry Gregory Ihave so many crazy thought going through my head.What do you think about this one? Ibelieve President Clinton had some young girl in has office and they had, well let me say it, a cigar.

If we all can get along. : ) As much sniping as there is on the list, when everyone gets together in Tucson, we put aside our differences (mostly) and get along wonderfully. You just took a few hits because of your statement that Norton actually spreads viruses in order to sell anti-virus software. You can't announce that the Earth is flat and expect to remain bullet-proof. "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time", as Robert Blake's Baretta-theme-song went, as ironic as that is right about now. ;-)Anyway, c'mon to Tucson and you'll see all the cameraderie you could ever want.

Come on Gregory just kidding with you. I took your comment well.

You keep bringing him up even though it doesn't have anything to do with anything. Are you insinuating that because I was critical of an absurd statemnt that YOU made, that somehow that means I must like Clinton or something? Strange logic. No, on second thought, NO logic. I'm really curious why the Clinton-connection is something you seem compelled to attach to me.You'll notice I took this off-list to avoid any more embarrassment for you. Many of the list-regulars have been circulating hilarious emails to each other, away from the list, about the notion of Norton inventing viruses, so you might want to cut your losses and stop peprpetuating this nonsense. If you want to continue to be ridiculed, that's up to you, but it reminds me of the old saying, "Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and it annoys the pig". RSVP. Gregory

[meteorite-list] Meteorite show?
I was just thinking, it would be fun, if its not already a "thing" to have a show or a get together once a year at Meteor Crater. A list meteorite meet.Or our own show.A chance for every one to meet and spend some time talking meteorites. Has this been done?

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite show?
Hi Tom, We usually do this in Tucson or Denver. There are a lot of get together(s) and both collectors and dealers make several parties. Probably the biggest is at Jim Kriegh's house in Tucson. I don't know if the Crater people would be receptive to us converging on the Crater for a meeting. I rather doubt it but we could have the meeting not far from there in Holbrook. Who knows you might find someone there picking up bunny droppings or worst :-) While on the subject, why not have a meteorite hunting party before or after the Tucson Show?? Wonder out in the desert and see if anyone could find a new meteorite. Just a thought. --AL __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite show?
Al, some of us are there in Holbrook already. We've just got back from the strewnfield, dusty, sweaty and probably a wee bit whiffy too.but we've found 25+ individuals fragments between the two of us so far. Cool! :-) Cheers, Rob Elliott using Dave Andrews email address in Sunny Holbrook. almitt wrote: I rather doubt it but we could have the meeting not far from there in Holbrook. __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite show?
Dear All, For all of those who have been to Tucson for the show, remember that we never have enough time or moneySo, although a field trip out would be great, bunny droppings, or visiting the rudeness (especially at the mention of H. H. Nininger's name) that I encountered at the crater doesn't seem so exciting. Oh, numerous signs warn of legal complications for hunting anything at the crater. Lucky we can even have a camera there... Now the old meteorite museum very near there could spark a cool outing location if the property owners would allow it. As a side note, the petrified wood east of there is a marvel for those collectors, and the rare woodworthia and shilderia can be had at local rock shops and flea market in Holbrook, and we are full circle back to those pesky bunnies and their calling cards.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite show?
Hi Tom and all again, Oh yes, there are a couple of guys, I think they are twins or something who have a birthday party at the local Mexican Restaurant near the Ramada. Can't seem to remember their names but anyway there are quite a few people who gather at that occasion and it is one of THE premier events of the Tucson Show these days. If I could only remember their namesit will come to me I am sure. :-) --AL __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
