Michael and friends, The level of reporting on the channel 9 news link is appalling. I looked up their source, Dr. Brunswig, and he's a professor of archaeology. While certainly a noble profession, it's clear he's uniformed about meteorites. Neither the TV station nor the newspaper reporter bothered to say what he was a professor of. I know these poorly-done reports come out all the time, but it irks me because I work at a newspaper, and getting the facts right and phrasing the information accurately matters so much. By the way, does anybody have an idea what the rock really is? Bob
