I agree with Richard, and also if you do contact him, be very polite. He has done a good amount of research on meteorites and is a nice person to talk with. I wanted to post about my discussion with him so others knew his comments were out of context. After reading the article then researching him, I shocked me he would have such a strong stance and opinion based on his work he has done.
