Hi,

Sunday, the Las Vegas Review Journal newspaper carried a second page headline 
that mentions the recent paper published in the current issue of Geosphere, the 
online mag for the Geological Society of America, arguing the legitimacy of the 
382 million year old "Alamo Impact" and doubling it's diameter to between 69 
and 93 miles. Those of us who have visited the physical area and collected 
impact breccia sometimes in the face of criticism of the size and even the 
legitimacy of the event are vindicated by the published findings of some 
several authors including Retzler, Warme and others.

The RJ story can be accessed on the newspaper's online site.....Geosphere has 
the scientific paper online.

Regards to all and thanks to the Hupes and Dirk Ross for putting me on the 
physical material of which I have a small truck load recovered from near what 
may be the more eastern edge of the remaining displacement.
