Steve,   Before you do anything else.  I mean anything!  Get Richard Norton's book "Rocks from Space" and read it.  It is the bible for meteorite enthusiasts.  Easy to read and still very comprehensive.   Once you have enjoyed that book then you can graduate to the other great texts out there like Norton's encyclopaedia and McSween's Meteorites and their parent planets just to name a few.   Cheers and Enjoy,   Mike Tettenborn ----- Original Message ----- From: STEVE ARNOLD To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 6:59 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] classifications h, l, ll c, r Good evening everyone. Ihave been wondering for along time where did they come up with  the class types for meteorites? Like LL.3, L6,C3.8, H.4, L5, ETC., ETC. Could someone please help me on this. I have been trying like hard to determine what is what. But I thought with some help from all you great people, some of this knowledge might help me out.                                                                                       steve Steve r.
