RE: [meteorite-list] Arrgh! What they do to some meteorites....

I agree about the waste, and am also curious about their cutting methods, but I have to admit that this one made me chuckle. I'd say golf has the tackiest items by far. When I see something made out of a meteorite relating to golf, I know it can't get any worse. Cheers, Pete From: Marco
