Hello List Members, 
We are trying to help an old friend who is not Internet savvy to sell his book

expertise

Any help would be appreciated,

Subject: [meteorite-list] Major Find!







Hello List,



Less than an hour ago, I returned to Las Vegas with a some experienced friends 
after we completed an "overnight" trip to the north. One of the smarter of us 
had come up with a way to drive in the afternoon to an area of promise and be 
on site at daybreak and hunt until, it was reasoned, people would be in the 
area and we would be subject to whatever. 



At a little after sunrise this morning, and less than an hour into searching, 
one of us made what we all agree might be a "major' find. We also agreed that 
one of us could say something censored to the List without "letting the cat out 
of the bag" for fear of the usual inane responses from the doubters and 
criticizers. But, more importantly, we also are aware that there would a real 
risk that some authority would claim the meteorite was found where it could be 
subject to seizure. 



We all are so excited and pumpedespecially me, because my cancer has kept 
me confined to home for many months... that we had to share the news and also 
establish the start of a public record of the find.



All we can say further is that the meteorite, which is much larger than the 
13.7 kilo LL6 chondrite I found in Pahrump, Nevada, is obviously not an OC. It 
was found on flat, sandy, terrain and it appears recent rain and wind had 
exposed part of it. 



I say this with affection for my friends, but I'll be surprised if they can 
keep a secret. At least I got to get some of the excitement off my chest. And 
no...I am not the lucky one who literally stumbled over this rock...but, I was 
20' away.

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Magazine

[Moni Waiblinger via Meteorite-list]

HI All,


yes sad news!


I for one will miss the magazine very much and treasure the ones I have!

Robert Beauford wrote this to me when I asked him about the magazine:  

Yes.  Derek and Hazel (the publishers) have made the decision to cease
 publication after the final issue of 2014.  While the magazine has a 
very loyal core of supporters and has been well cared for by advertisers
 and subscriber over the
 years, the overall number of subscribers has fallen steadily for the 
last decade.  I believe that this simply reflects the fact that people 
are turning more and more to the internet for their education, news, and
 entertainment.  Its been both an honor and a pleasure to support the 
authors and the magazine as an editor, and I am grateful to everyone 
involved, but upon consideration of the numbers, I support Derek and 
Hazel completely in their decision.  Its been great, but it is time to 
lay it down.  History has moved on.



So sad! 
Moni
