Re: [meteorite-list] Ad: TektiteSource website updated with lots more coming---
Welcome back Norm...

We've been reorganizing our inventory and working our way through a massive update of the Tektite Source website (www.TektiteSource.com) and have posted hundreds of new specimens---fabulous Besednice Moldavites, Bikolite soccerballs, top-shelf Libyan Desert Glass, and more--- I'll be at the catch-up job for weeks to come, but I wanted to give the list first shot at the new material. Check in and stop back often. The changes will continue on a near-daily basis. It's good to be home, but my new boss (me) is a bit of a slave-driver! I think we'll eventually come to terms if the bugger will show a bit of basic humanity. Good website traffic may help him to understand that I am doing something. I think both of us may be a bit schizoid to tell the truth---but that's hardly anything new for him (an opinion which I share as well!).

[meteorite-list] Rare earth magnets and young un's
Hi List Been having quite a hard time lately and no time to post or even follow my most favorite-ist group! http://www.kptv.com/story/17070382/3-year-old-swallows-37-magnets-and-survives Saw this article and it is a good chance for sayin' hi, and at the same time, if you are around any Jughaids n Taters toddlers that are natural hunters to be, these are the symptoms to keep in mind if they discover any magnets, not to be blindsided and in a terrible pinch - one magnet can do it. --Not suggesting this - but if medical care is not easily accessible: A quick test, *only in experienced, cool, calm and patient hands* - a magnet suspended by a thread's deflection will do it for magnets and many magnetic metals, but with the utmost precaution not to get to close since there is not much flesh in between such little bodies and you could actually cause a perforation if it is another rare earth or a sharp piece of ferromagnetic metal. --Better yet, file some iron into a baggie first, if there is the possibility of a rare earth and use it to scan their digestive tract, before trying the magnet on the string. A swallow disaster is good to think about ahead of time, since having forethought does wonders to quell panick and mistakes. It's no different than you would expect from your employer's health treatment policies if there are risks in the workplace, even if only a grandkid ocassional comes by. The fast reaction in the link of this family and doctor's decision to over diagnose a seemingly minor situation saved this future meteorite hunting little girl's life! A single magnet will likely pass; but two ingested separately is bad news all around.

Re: [meteorite-list] Rare earth magnets and young un's
Hi Doug, Would using a compass instead of a magnet be a better way to go? The needle of the compass ought to deflect very easily if the child swallowed a rare earth magnet, I would think.

Re: [meteorite-list] Rare earth magnets and young un's
G'Day Doug and Ed The compass is a good idea, but I think we might be looking at something that's commonly available in any household.

[meteorite-list] ***Ad*** New Arizona IMB, Franconia, Tissint, SAW 005 With Hole
Hello List, I have some interesting items on ebay right now like a limited opportunity to purchase a new, unclassified meteorite from Arizona. I'm guessing it's an L chondrite, IMB. A little more than 600 grams is all that's been recovered thus far, after many hundreds of hours of searching. The plan is to hunt for what's left of this season and submit samples for classification early this summer. Of course that could change. I also have a 1.667 gram piece of Tissint with plenty of gas bubbles, buy it now priced. If you like irons with holes in them then you have to see two of my SAW005 specimens! One looks like a fish, the other is the smallest iron I've ever seen with a hole in it. Check it out; http://www.ebay.com/sch/alienrockfarm/m.html?_ipg=50_sop=12_rdc=1 Thanks for looking!
