Hi Mark and List,
Such a book sounds like a great idea. A bunch of that info is located
in the online Meteorite Times archives. There are several old
articles by Jim Tobin that cover some of these lapidary type topics.
But having all of those, and more like them, in one book would be nice.
All this talk about a guide to meteorites for newbies makes it sound
like the perfect venue would be the Meteorite Wiki. www.meteoritewiki.com
Seems pretty simple to me. Everyone that would like to know anything
about meteorites could learn it there.
A book, is so, well... Old school... ;)
