Bob, your suggestion seems to be a clear violation of
ebay policies and might result in ebay cancelling the
auction.
http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-links.html
Non-permitted links include, but are not limited to:
Links to websites or pages that offer to trade, sell
or purchase goods
I know,
But many people do it effectively. Look around on ebay. Most dealers have
their websites on their auctions and have been doing it for years.
Ebay wont cancel your account. Just the auction. Seems like low risk to me.

Hi Mark,
Browse around a bit on http://www.sourceforge.net which is a well known large
repository of open source software for all kinds of things. There is certainly
mapping software on there (search with keywords like map and/or gps I suggest).

Still unanswered is the other question:
And then there is little dinky Roosevelt Co, NM at just 2,455 sq miles and it has a
staggering 109 meteorites, which comes to one for every 22.5 sq miles. What gives?
They are of a wide variety of classifications, so it can't be turning every

I don't believe that we have fully explored the origins, manufacture and

Hi, Jerry, List,
The meteorites of Roosevelt Co. are found in wind-ablated
pits, called blow-outs, which fill with sand and preserve them.

to 90,000 years old!
Thanks Ruben, for that. I do remember seeing this article a while back. Give

I have found on a 151g Erg Chech / Mali Meteorite a metallic inclusion,

That's very cool. I must have a play with it when I have a bit of time.

Hi All:
Would a short article in Meteorite magazine on this subject be of interest
to readers?
If so, please let me know and I can contact the authors who I know and are

published elsewhere, but it can't hurt for me to ask.
There was a bug on the MetBull database site that reported longitudes
between 0 and 1 degree west as negative east longitudes. Wold
Cottage was one. It is fixed. Good catch.
Also, I modified the little google maps applet in the database to
allow you to use USGS topo maps and aerial photos
