Thank you Mark for sharing this idea and the fun you are having with this list. Did you come up with the Meteorite Festival in Haviland and is it the first? I think we should have one in California! Let you and the list know if it will happen some day! Any volunteers? Enjoy! Moni From: "MA

Hello Moni, You asked, "Did you come up with the Meteorite Festival in Haviland and is it the first?" This is the first, but it was not my ideal. I was one of the first to hear the mayor mention it and have stayed in communication with members of the city since, but I think it was his ideal.

G'day George, I wish I had some documentation to rely upon, but do not. I have a feeling that it was in the winter period down here, though, I do seem to remember being cold, and standing on the platform, instead of sitting and freezing my backside off. The object was already incandescant when
