Re: [meteorite-list] Front page news
Hello Rob, All, Thanks for the note - still amazed at our luck out there. I wasn't sure that the reporter would use any of the photos or notes they took, but it looks like they settled on some of each. I did mention the radar returns and showed the data to the reporters to give them an idea of what we were working with -- the result was that your/Marc's radar work was noted here: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0430-meteorite-search-pictures,0,3960135.photogallery ...But sadly not in the meat of the article. I'll be submitting the list of our team's finds to Peter Jenniskens in the coming days - had to return from the field due to final exams. We ultimately recovered fragments or individuals from what were originally five complete stones. In my opinion, the ease of finding these stones is comparable to when Peter and I showed up in Ash Creek a month after the fall. I have the feeling that stones will continue to trickle out for several months..

[meteorite-list] Front Page News
Hey, Ok, sorry I know I have a lot to say today. I made it to the front page of the Lancaster County Newspaper today. http://www.reddit.com/tb/9gkqe Just so you know, I was misquoted a couple of times in the article. I know I will get some corrections from you guys, so just want to go on record before you read it. The main problem is the line about black magnetic = meteorite ... I did NOT say that. I said : black magnetic = maybe meteorite (take picture and email it to expert). I also didn't say meteorites cost $1000 per gram.. might be a couple of other wrong things in there, but I'm still happy with it. I've already got two people trying to contact me cause they say they found meteorites. I will probably have to search through a ton of fine PA slag If you have a reddit account, please up-vote the story. If you don't have a reddit account, get one (only takes 5 seconds) and then up-vote the story. ( i will really appreciate it and the meteor gods will send you blessings) Thanks, Mike Hankey http://www.mikesastrophotos.com __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
