Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors
Great article. Wouldn't it be interesting to get the opinions of a few super smellers employed by perfume companies and vintners.

Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors
Interesting indeed! I like smelling fresh pieces of meteorites in the morning and getting high off the aromas! (j/k though whenever I get my hands on particularly an unweathered meteorite, I have to take some sniffs of it) Imagine having a sizable broken chunk of Allende (smells something like lime (the fruit) IMO), Murchison or NWA 096 (bubble gum chondrite) in your room? Could make for an nice air freshener! --- -Melanie IMCA: 2975 eBay: metmel2775 Known on SkyRock Cafe as SpaceCollector09 I eat, sleep and breath meteorites 24/7. - Original Message From: Meteorites USA e...@meteoritesusa.com To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Thu, September 9, 2010 11:32:51 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors Very cool article Bob!

Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors
Melanie and all, Don't know who you bought your Allende from but.I don't know how to say this, but I have sold off some Allende recently. Had some sitting on the counter where I make my margaritas and there is a possibility that I got some lime on some specimens by accident. I usually keep them away from the food prep area but this one time was the exception. It may be that is what you smell, I am sorry to say. All my best! --AL Quoting Melanie Matthews miss_meteor...@yahoo.ca: Interesting indeed! I like smelling fresh pieces of meteorites in the morning and getting high off the aromas!

Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors
My smelly Allende fragment came from Gary Fujihara, and it does smell like margarita! I doubt that any of his Allendes were contaminated with such... unless he originally purchased them from you? --- -Melanie IMCA: 2975 eBay: metmel2775 Known on SkyRock Cafe as SpaceCollector09 I eat, sleep and breath meteorites 24/7. - Original Message From: almi...@localnet.com almi...@localnet.com To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Sat, September 11, 2010 2:22:09 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Planetary Body Odors Melanie and all, Don't know who you bought your Allende from but.I don't know how to say this, but I have sold off some Allende recently.
