Oops, sorry Zagami, I also apologize to Shergotty. Now, how can I make good for my "faux pax" ...? Well, I'll tell my meteorite buddies (and ladies) about my very first Martian meteorite. I hope my Zagami slice accepts my apology :-) I got my 0.5-gram, wafer-thin platelet of Zagami from Rolf B�hler of the Swiss Meteorite Laboratory about 10 years ago when we were still cooperating (we - that was Beat Booz, Rolf B�hler and myself) and offering our WinMetCat database for sale. I had attended the Z�rich Mineral and Meteorite Show where Rolf offered and sold all kinds of meteorites in a hotel room. Having spent all my money on some of his specimens, there was not one cent left to buy this little Martian beauty. But I still got it - Rolf was then selling wrist watches with a Gibeon dial plate and sorely needed both an English and a French translation of his commercial ad. My chance: I offered to do these translations and as a recompense I got my 1.0 x 1.0 x 0.1 cm platelet of Zagami from him :-) Best wishes, Bernd ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
