Dear List, I just thought I would throw my opiniion into the discussion.
It is obvious that this meteorite contains chondrules therefore calling it anything but a chondrite doesn't make any sense to me. These round objects cannot be mistaken for anything else. Radial pyroxene and barred olivine clasts, I don't think so, these are obvious chondrules. This material is heterogeneous so this is a case where more than the 20 gram type sample is required in order to interpret this meteorite properly. If pieces that contain round objects are omitted from study, I can see why it could be interpreted as an Aubrite. Another thing working against it is that it does not look anything like other known Aubrites. To me, this is an EL Chondrite, nothing more, nothing less, still a cool find.
