Hello, Martin A. and the list. and thank you for the pic, Martin A. Well, these are really not micrometeorites. I put the pic on the net; http://www.dlc.fi/~nuuska/kinnekulle.jpg just to save time and trouble from Martin, hope this is ok. If not, Martin, please, let me know, and I�ll remove the pic.
