I have a small individual where the texture of the fusion crust is completely 
different from any of
the others in my (admittedly small) collection.  On the rounded side, it is of 
typical smoothness,
but on the flat side, it feels almost like fine sandpaper and appears almost 
porus.  Is this more
likely to be a post-fall erosion feature, or some sort of "bubbling"/"frothing" 
of the molten rock
during ablation?
