Hi All,
I guess with Alan Hupe's post, this contest is now academic.
Too bad that there was already a known classification (which
would taint the outcome of a serious contest). But it was
all in good fun! Congrats to Rob and Herbert (and anyone else
who ~wanted~ to take LL6, but couldn't). Since there was so
much interest, we should try it again with the next fall
(preferably prior to classification!) Or even the next
interesting new find...
Here's my final tally of the guesses for posterity. (How
do we decide who was the furthest off? ;-)) --Rob M.

------------------------------------------------------------------
* LL6 already taken
** L6 breccia already taken
*** While Phil sent his guess first, it didn't appear on the list until
after Dave sent his, so both should get credit
!! I was going to give credit for specificity until I found out it
wasn't a "guess" ;-)
