the problem can be addressed. If we get into a witch hunt now, it may
defeat the desired end result.

The holes and the sort of light gray coloring in patches reminds me of
clinker, melted stuff from around furnaces. Those are not just
indentations, they are holes and round ones like gas has pushed through.
Just doesn't seem that solid.

Well saying get weekly updates of a virus checker is too obvious.

If you walk around the dealers in Hong Kong (a special administrative
region of China) they say there is no problem taking them out. This goes
from fossils to antiques. I don't think this is the law but there is no
one paying any attention to it.
I do know that Mongolia lets nothing out, from
For the first time in weeks its a

tea bags and floppy disks and other things as sun filters! No one believes me
that its a bad idea! We only get the start of it. Im hoping to

It's not in the same place in Namibia, it came from further South I
believe. Haven't been there for a while.
My piece looks like the crust has dried and cracked. Almost like mud
dries on the outside. I haven't sliced it though. But this is the only
one I have seen like this.

Basically it's the formation of glass from heat and pressure. A
meteorite hits the earth, and the force melts the sand (silicate) to
sand. The same thing happens with atomic bombs.

work, so they cant get to it. Seems that the influx of NWAs has
created just too much work.

They throw a lot of words and non relevant history around. I come from
near that area, and there were no missionaries there, and the only
Cubans were those involved with rebels in Angola during the South
African bush war, for control of parts of the then protectorate South
West Africa (150 years
There is a dealer in Pretoria, someone on the list has dealt with him I
know, who has a lot of them. He sells them at mineral shows, sort of
scratch patch type thing. Try him - I bought a bunch at R10 (about
$1-50) each for little ones like you want.
I think that Matteo means the financial losses made by people are
private. The scam itself is very public, and no one would disagree. Such
forums as ours are the most effective way to do it, but not everyone
will want to make public that they were taken in. On the other hand, the
more that is made
Have we, as a community, made sufficient peace with the dealer, so that
we don't end up after this with a dealer vs. collectors weariness? Maybe
an email should go to him, explaining that it was all done for the good
of collecting, and that no harm was meant, and that his future endeavors

Has anyone ever had any luck with putting netting over their gutters as
a matter of principle, and examining what comes out. I mean in a normal
suburb where there is no fall - so that you catch the debris of the
occasional shooting star. Is there enough small matter coming down to
make this worth

still pieces to be found up there? It would make
As Eccles in the Goons would say, you dirty rotten swines, you. I am a

bought a little bit yesterday. I even smiled at the boss, attracting
more work! But
You guys are running a RING around us with the puns.

One thing that strikes me in this story is : if your kid comes and tells
you there is a noise, believe them! Could be anything! How many
accidents have happened due to telling them to go back to sleep?

throwing a brick onto

anyone know what they really mean by that? There are more than that a month if
you look at http://comets.amsmeteors.org/meteors/calendar.html.
However, ones that hit the earth in this way there would be less of. Do they
mean a found strewn field?

Problem is, the locals in South Africa seem to regard it as a lucky escape
when they read the news. I think, hell, what a waste! I could have got a

Will a meteorite be hot when it lands? I would think so, but I'm sure I read
something that it isn't.
Already rusty?
Hows her foot feel? Not part of the crater?
Johnothan, since you are there, can you go get us all a piece of it? Hehehe.
Offer some CD's and shiny beads!

A place to fall. Besides striking down the occasional mother in law at a
crucial moment (this is more of a job for Thor), I would have loved
something to fall in the days when meteorites were not thought to come from
the sky, and definitely not
strike
were to happen.

I read today that the Silkote Alin fall had pieces of what were essentially
shrapnel, from the iron that fell.
On the weekend I bought a few pieces of Gibeon, from a guy who had been in
Namibia (I'm in SA so it's close). These are bits straight out of the
ground. One has a sharp blade of metal
