Hi Herbert and List, >> The chunk of space rock is higher in extra-terrestrial >> material than any other meteorite and may belong in a > class of its own, say researchers at London's Natural > History Museum.
Herbert commented, "Higher in extra-terrestrial material than any other meteorite??? Uuuups, I thought my meteorites are all 100% extra-terrestrial material. Does Tagish Lake get 110%...? ;-)" I didn't save the original article, but I seem to recall that it was extra-terrestrial carbon (or carbon compounds) that Tagish had in greater abundance than all other carbonaceous chondrites. But that doesn't excuse the use of the misleading words "extra- terrestrial material" as a substitute for organic compounds. --Rob ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
