[meteorite-list] Ensisheim-St Marie shows

Hi everyone, I am sitting in Frankfurt right now, but driving back to France today. I just wanted to report a little about the Ensisheim show. It was great, lots of friends I haven't seen in a year, we caught up on meteorite news, tales of great hunts and new goodies. I did not see much new

[meteorite-list] Lighten up, it's just semantics

The trouble with astrologers is they vote, they influence, and they pass their ignorance on to the next generation. Dog-kicking is not a problem because the dog can take a bite out of the offending leg. If an astrologer influences a politician (Nancy and Ronald, e.g.), it's not something to

Re: [meteorite-list] Lighten up, it's just semantics

I'm reminded of something that happened after the great Montrose fireball on Thanksgiving 2002. As usual, I was receiving calls from newspapers and TV stations. However, being a big holiday, all the news staffers were pretty much interns, with little experience. I answered a bunch of questions

[meteorite-list] Astrology/Astronomy

Hi, My dearly-departed and beloved grandmother was an avid astrologer. I don't share her beliefs, which were admittedly from somewhere way out past left field. But she was a loving, kind, and INTELLIGENT woman with a masters degree. She just believed in a few goofy things like astrology

Hi Mike, I whole heartily agree. I see now we are adding politics in the argument which is a good way to open a can of worms to get a big off topic of politics going on here. Sooner or later someone will do a search and see the discussion and invite all his/her friends to dive in to the off

[meteorite-list] poor picture, nice surface features

For anyone who likes different surface features, here is a gouged out grove along one edge of a small blackened (suspect) stone. It is running nearly the length . If you're like me, that ablation feature is exciting to see. Sorry the pic is not so good. Took it through the m-scope.

[meteorite-list] Glass in meteorites

Have any studies been done on decay of glasses in meteorites into crystaline configurations? Is there a mesurable rate, or does it not happen? This story brought that to mind-- if impact-generated glasses in meteorites HAVE NOT decayed into crystaline material in 4 billion years, it's fairly
