SO TEST THE DAMN THING! Who is advising this family?!! It is aggravating that people who appear to want to do the right thing [e.g. serve an "educational purpose"] have either not been told of the importance of short-lived isotope testing, or have not heeded the message. And just as a reminder, it has yet to be proved that this object is even a meteorite! Four gentlemen passing around a metallic lump for ten minutes does not constitute a conclusive analysis, regardless of how many papers they've published on meteorites. --Rob ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
