Some of you know that I was not able to go to Tucson this year (only Oscar is there), but anyway I have good information about Darryl'd auction. Last year I mentioned to Bob Keller about the Meteorite auction and he did a great report. This year Bob did it again!. The page is still under construction but you can see all the final prices there and lots of photos! Here is a link to the meteorite auction report page http://www.tucsonshow.com/reports/tucson2002/p6.shtml Eduardo
