Rob and all... This is a fun thread, and shows the great diversity of how many of us got started!
For me, it was a visit to the Jacksonville (Florida) Children's Museum (now the Museum of Science and History) as a third grader in 1963 (yep, I'm an old geezer!). I already had a fascination with astronomy and the space program (which started with Alan Shepard's May 1961 flight--yes, yes I am older than the Canyon Diablo fall!!). But now to that first piece: a small Canyon Diablo "chip"... which I still have! I think I paid 25 cents for it, card, glue-to-the-meteorite, sales tax and all.
