I would be interested in the results of a study on the paleomagnetic
memory of meteorites.  Who did it, and what specifically was found about
ALH8001, and the initial energy state of the solar system/universe? or
what did you expect to find?

Unfortunately, I expect that many meteorite hunters will continue to use
the magnet as a base test for determing whether a suspect rock is a
meteorite.  It's cheap, easy, and saves time and effort if you have to
decide whether a rock is worth packing out of an inacessible location.
There would have to be some fairly compelling hard data to eliminate one
of the first tests of meteoricity (is that a word?)
