Hello to the List,

placed in boxes along with several hot

Cabin Creek is without a doubt, the most aesthetically beautiful symmetrical

Jim Strope and I recovered a new Lunar meteorite, I bought it in Morocco in
October. Many of you saw it in Munich, when we speculated that it might be
Martian, but when cut, we knew it was Lunar instead. It has been confirmed
as Lunar, and is very similar to NWA 773 which is sold at many times
WHOAAA! It's sooo awesome, Mike and Jim. CONGRATULATIONS GUYS

Or it means gone.
Very important on parcels, it's the confirmation, that it's sent, already
