2 posisble options:

1.  Maybe the heavens were helping Harvey get his business going during the heart of the Great Depression.  If there ever was a year that he needed the help it probably would have been that year.  Having gone full time in 1930, probably all his "Paragould profits" were spent by 1933.

2.  Maybe it was the fact that so many people were out of work then, still at a time in history while many were on foot, people had more opportunity to actually recover them.  Some areas had literally NO vegitation growing (crops or wild) so that stuff could be recovered more easily.

Personally, I vote for option #1.

Hi Bernd and All,

Out of curiosity, I looked up the falls of 1933 since it has the most
witnessed falls at 18 compared to the overall average number of
falls of 6.6 falls per year.

But now the surprise:

L6: 3
L5: 1
H4: 1
H3.5-4.5: 1
LL6: 2
Chondrite unknown: 1

Stone unknown: 1

CM2: 1

Howardite: 1
Eucrite: 3
Aubrite: 1

IIF iron: 1

Mesosiderite: 1

Hardly an âaverageâ year.

Any thoughts?

Martin
