With polygonal structures, I am thinking: frost action (on a giant scale). It is Antarctica after all. The same link above mentions that it might be visible on satellite images from 25 yrs ago. If true, it is not connected to the inferred 2004 event. - Marco Dr Marco (183294) Langbroek astero...@langbroek.org http://www.marcolangbroek.nl http://asteroids.marcolangbroek.nl - __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

I have it on good authority that Tucson is fast approaching! With that in mind, I am once again giving my “Annual Eating Your Way Around Tucson” list, a slight name change from last year. This list has been put together with over twenty years of attending the shows. These are my opinions (well, my wife, Cookie, too!) only. I have no vested interest in any of these establishments, no free food, etc! I just like good food! Maybe you will find my/our tastes different from yours but all of these are worth a try! Again this year, I am leaving for Tucson mid-January! This will be my fourth year to make the 2200 mile (each way!) drive to Tucson. Cookie is flying out later! Guess that she is a bit smarter than I! But better days are ahead as Cookie is retiring July 2nd and will be ‘able’ to drive out with me in 2016! I am adding some new locations suggested by list members last year after prior posts. We did get to try some of them and enjoyed them VERY much. I hope to add more this year! NEW FAVORITES for us! Fist, a BIG “Thank you!” to Terry Sayther from Austin Texas! Terry sent us a couple of suggestions for breakfast … or ANYtime! We are calling them “MUSTS”! MUST #1: Bobo's Restaurant, 2938 E. Grant Road, 520-326-6163 http://www.bobostucson.com/ We at there ‘more than once’ in 2014! Everything is GREAT! I have to be gluten free but try the pancakes! They are the size of a plate! The omelets are WONDERFUL! Check out the deserts! MUST #2: Robert’s Restaurant (closed Sunday), 3301 East Grant Road, (520) 795-1436 http://www.robertstucson.com/ We also visited Robert’s a couple of times! Robert’s is just down the street from Bobo’s but on the opposite side of Grant! You cannot go wrong with either choice! If you are looking for GREAT ‘diner’ eats, give Little Anthony's Diner (, 7010 E Broadway Blvd, 520-296-0456) a try http://littleanthonysdiner.com/ I know this is not food/eating related but check out The Gaslight Theatre http://thegaslighttheatre.com/! During Tucson show time, the Gaslight offers a old west themed, hilarious melodrama! We have attended each year for several years and have enjoyed each performance! This year’s production is Two Gun McGraw. You can order your tickets online for best seat selection and then pick them up in Tucson. Now, a ‘Classic’! * Pat's Drive In, 1202 West Niagara Street, 520-624-0891 I should not list this first, but I AM! I first read about Pat's in Arizona Highways magazine. It is a tradition in Arizona! It is on a side street off N. Grande Ave, between Speedway and St. Marys. It is near the condo that we rent each year. I had driven within half a block of it for years and did not know it existed! If you like the old drive in restaurants, this IS the place for you! If you like greasy fries by the pound, this is for you! If you like GREAT chili hotdogs, this IS the place for you, please note that they have three degrees of heat for their chili! We have favorites that we think everyone should try at least once. In no particular order: NEW! NEW! NEW! This is our NEW “favorite” from 2013: * Guadalajara Grill was suggested by good friend, Dennis Beal, XTAL, (Room 120, Hotel City Center, Marty Zinn’s Arizona Mineral Fossil Show). We have learned that if Dennis suggests a restaurant, you BEST try it! He has never sent us to a bad one, not even a mediocre one! Guadalajara Grill – West, 1220 E Prince Road-520-323-1022 (also 2nd location: East, 750 N Kolb Road, 520-296-1122. We went to the one on Prince the very last night we were in Tucson 2013. Large parking lot that was FULL! It took us 15 minutes or more to find a parking place … then about 30-45 minutes to get a table … BUT it was more than worth the wait! HUGE portions of GREAT food at reasonable prices! You WILL enjoy it! * La Fuente Restaurant, 1749 N. Oracle Rd., 520-623-8659 REALLY good Mexican/Tex-Mex food. The lunch buffet is very good and very reasonable. If you're there for dinner, be sure to order the Guacamole made table-side. It is VERY GOOD! * Silver Saddle Steak House, 6th Ave. I-10 (310 E. Benson Highway), 520-622-6253 This place is near downtown and has some of the best steak that I've had in Tucson. If you're going for dinner, it is best to get there early or be prepared to wait 30 minutes to an hour. It IS worth the wait! I do not think that they take reservations. We ate at Silver Saddle at least twice in 2013 … and probably will top that this year! * Lil Abner's Steakhouse, 8501 N Silverbell Rd., 520-744-2800 This is a MUST for Tucson show visitors. I remember going there a lot of
