Hi Ed,
You asked,
"I hope you and your brother are holding on to your planetary cutting
dust -"
I have the cutting dust from every Lunar of Martian meteorite I have, I am
still waiting to use it in a special project at some point. I also have the
cutting dust from just about every achondrite I have ever cut.
I have ideas of how to use this material eventually, but am willing to
consider other's ideas.
Best regards,
Greg

Hi -
Agree completely, Greg. The classification labs and all concerned deserve
our thanks. Without NWA I wouldn't have my little chip of the Moon, with
which I will be delighting some 2,000 young people next week.
I hope you and your brother are holding on to your planetary cutting
dust -
good hunting and best wishes -
Ed

Hello Ed,
You stated, "Maybe what we need is more UFOs and fewer
bolides, given all the NWA material on the market..."
All NWA material (and other material found elsewhere) are
'UFO's' until the scientists prove they are "meteorites" (or
not).
This seems like a perfect time to acknowledge the hard work
and efforts the scientific community has done for those of
us who primarily work with NWA material. Without this
handful of dedicated scientists, many Saharan finds would
never be recognized as meteorites and brought to the many
public and private collections throughout the world. Their
work has added valuable information that may not have been
discovered with these hot desert finds.
Best regards,
Greg
