Yes I was lucky enough to be home and working when the request came in and was 
able to fill the other and take care of Andy. He bought a very nice large 
Martian meteorite sample. He sent me a nice autographed book personalized to 
me. I've seen the movie, it's great.

Hi Tracy,

As it turns out I know of two people who were contacted by a close friend of 
Andy Weir's, and a customer of mine (name of client withheld for obvious 
reasons). While I was up hunting a bolide sighting on the Florida/Georgia 
line using radar return readings from Marc & Rob I was contacted by my 
friend stating Andy was interested in a Martian meteorite. I told him I 
would be back home in a week and would be happy to offer him a big piece at 
a great price once back. During that time he also contacted Mike Farmer who 
also had a nice large piece of Mars and he was able to fill Andy's request 
quicker than me.


So, congratulations to Mike Farmer for providing Andy with a nice Martian 
meteorite!


Best Regards,
Greg
