RE: [meteorite-list] Elma Status?

Given the reputation of the people examining this stuff, how busy they are, and the amount of time they are willing to spend on this - It's not crap. It is probably more related to a tektite than anything else if one were to summon up a simile , and how did pieces of this wind up embedded in a
