Hello Tom and list,

Tektites are very interesting and sometimes puzzleing.  As another list
member noted they did "fall from the sky".  I have been making my way around
to all the major meteorite collections on display in the United States, and
they always seem to have a few tektites.

Kinda related to tektites, is meteorite impactite, which myself and several
other list members also collect.  If one was to limit themselves to just
three different impactites, then I would suggest Ries Suevite, Sudbury Melt
Glass, and Sudbury Black Onaping.  All which can be purchased from a number
of sellers on eBay at very affordable prices.

Impactites can also be purchased through a number of websites, such as
fellow list and IMCA members, Ron Hartman's Meteorite1.com, Anne Black's
Impactika.com and Geoffrey Cintron's Islandmeteorites.com.
