Thanks Doug, You can add Mike Zolensky to the list. He drives a Saturn too. (or did just a few years ago). Maybe Saturn should have made a deal with NASA, and they would still be in business now! Anne M. Black _http://www.impactika.com/_ (http://www.impactika.com/) _IMPACTIKA@aol.com_ (mail

Michael, List, I think it's most likely that some special group or unique class may be Mercurians and less likely that they are not recognized as meteorites. But we have to remember that our solar system and everything in it has been made out of the very same box of Betty Crocker Complete Solar S
