Greg,
The only problem I see making the Galapagos turtle the spokesman and
naming him "BP" is:
Most folks would still expect to receive their classifications "oily" on
in the process...
[as I beat a hasty retreat]

I like your "P.S." for the Galapagos turtle, maybe the 'List' should name
him as a spokesperson, maybe "BP", (Be Patient)!! :-)

Hi Greg,
It's not instant gratification I want, I am just curious about these
falls and want to know more about them. Cartersville fell over a year
ago. And it's been over 6 months since Lorton. I understand that
Lorton is tied up legally, so it's not available for analysis. It's
been 3 months since Wisconsin and there is material in the hands of
those who can classify it. I admit that I am inexperienced with the
classification part of meteorites, but how long does it take to make a
thin section and then look at it? I would think that the scientists
would be more eager than I to know the types, so I would imagine that
it's not the scientist's fault if the classification is slow. In the
case of Lorton, it's obviously legal red tape. But what about
Cartersville, Kosice and Wisconsin? I just think it's a bit weird and
inconsistent - we saw a classification for Ash Creek within a week of
the fall. So, apparently Ash Creek was deemed important enough for an
expedited classification. Why is Wisconsin and others so different?
Or, what was different about Ash Creek?
I'm a patient guy, but I am also a curious one and I'd wondering why
some falls get classified quick and others languish for years.
Best regards,
MikeG
PS - maybe that Galapagos turtle is doing the classifications. ;)

Ok I agree what is the hold up? What is the lack of enthusiasm? Why
are the people who do the classification work not excited to produce
results? Is there something about a meteorite that falls from space to
the earth that is not exciting?

Hi Listees!
Does anyone have any updates on the classifications of the following
meteorites?
Lorton
Kosice
Wisconsin (Livingston/Mifflin)
Cartersville
None of these falls have been published in the Meteoritical Bulletin
yet and there has been no word on the petrologic types. If anyone
knows the petrologic types of these meteorites, please share that
info. :)
Best regards,
MikeG
