Unclassified meteorites are like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get! ----- Original Message ---- From: Greg Hupe <gmh...@htn.net> To: "Rose, David MD" <dr...@emersonhosp.org> Cc: Jeff Grossman <jgross...@usgs.gov>; "meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com" <meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Thu, July 22, 2010 5:51:24 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Its official! NWA 6291 "The King of Angrites" for sale -... Hello everyone, Isn't 'science' just that, "Science"... Ever evolving as ground truth comes in? Without open minds and hard work by many dedicated individuals, 'science' would not get very far, especially in the world of meteortitics! Much of the initial work and/or thoughts are educated suggestions which are meant to excite others in rational and sometimes heated discussions, no matter what scientific focus is being discussed. I won't even bring up the evolution talks of the past... Best Regards, Greg Hupe On Jul 22, 2010, at 8:00 AM, "Rose, David MD" <dr...@emersonhosp.org> wrote: > I agree with Jeff completely.
