Dear List,
It appears that this is not Weston as labeled;maybe not even a meteorite?

Dear List Members,
Just a quick note to let you know I have 56 auctions ending tonight. All were
started at just 99 cents with no reserve. There are many great pieces listed
including some larger thin slices of planetary material. I will be listing
different pieces from old stock as I run
I sent two inquiries recently via the meteoritesusa web site and received
canned responses along the lines of 'thank you for your email' but nothing
about the specific issue, which was the issues I haven't received, which is all
but the first one. So, WTFooey with the extra copies for the gem
I paid back at the first of November and for the $39.95 deal/package and have
not seen anything yet. I got an email saying they were shipping the goodies but
I have yet to see them either. That was several weeks ago. I am starting to get
worried.

Hello,

article are a bit out of wack but the basic story is correct. The stone in the

only one of the seven stones that wasn't
Hello Dirk, All,
That specimen is typical of larger pieces of the Weston H-breccia.
I've seen photos of other larger pieces and they all look like that,
give or take.
Yale has a larger piece:

List,
Paul asked Has anyone who subscribed to MHC Magazine gotten any other issue
via snail mail beyond the premier July issue?
I haven't and my unsolicited opinion is that we probably will not receive
any in the future. Publishing and distributing niche periodicals is a daunting

Count,
I agree with you but if what you suggest is true, it's not fair to let someone
mislead this list by soliciting future subscriptions. I thought that the
November issue was at the press back in December and to print the November
issue before the September one makes no sense at all! And
Dear Jason and All that replied,
Thank you for clearing things up for me about the photo of the Weston. I
have only seen it in broken form in the 50 some grams that I bought from
Michael Cottingham several years ago. Best Regards, Dirk...Tokyo

The buzz in Tucson is already growing and the tents are going up!
No question those of us that live here are getting excited too. Just 9 more
days before the official start of the first show. Some wheeling and dealing has
already started.
A quick weather update, it's going to be about 80F
Me To! Eric, My man, Pal, If you are out there, Suggestion! I would
expect you to satisfy your publication back with your subscribers before
trying to sell additional inventory in Tucson Seems you have given us
all the same story about the printer holding up completion. What's Up???
Thanks for the update Richard. I know I'm catching the buzz! Loading up the
outrigger canoe (with meteorites and beer), and looking forward to seeing all
my meteorite compatriots in a few days. A hui hou!

If you don't want to do this, go to the on-line sites, get the addresses for
the show, program them into your GPS BEFORE you head to Tucson and you're good
to go. I've done that and it sure saves time going to shows that you've never
been to before.
And, risking the wrath of the list, I, too,
Hello Martin and List,
Congrats, Martin, on your Brachinite pairing to NWA 4882. It is such a nice
meteorite, can't believe it has been about three years ago that I first got
NWA 4882 and STILL haven't offered any publicly. Time flies by too fast...
Some many meteorites, so little time!! :-)

Hello Listers,
Looks like the Gem show is already on its way in Tucson, I wonder what will be
the hit this year at the show, only time will tell unless some Listers have a
hunch? As for the shows I am wondering will ASU be par taking in the Tucson Gem
activities and who's the Curator or in

Beautiful material. Would you be so kind as to post pictures of the whole stone
including the fusion crust.

I would like to put together an educational collection of impact materials. I

on, with their crater of origin (and

Sorry for the double AD post but I forgot to mention that you should
look at the oriented SaW 005 wash ad and click the link to the
Smallest Oriented Meteorite Contest. I'm sure there are quite a few
of you that will remember this and quite a few new people that have
never seen this.
I just took a quick look as some of the reviews of this book that were
written by CT newspapers, and I will have to read the book to determine the
accuracy of some of the statements.

You ask a lot - there are good impactites offered at the Tucson show and on

along the Interstate or outlier sites from the Interstate in the region, I
hope you had a knowledgeable field guide with you. Most of these
I am finally back online. Been a very crazy few weeks. Sorry to all I have not

That said,
I need to raise some cash.
I have 4 thin sections (uncovered) of NWA 6292 which as we all know is paired
with the famous NWA 5400.
Ted,
Yes. It was no small process to collect the samples. Weeks of research went
in to preparing for the trip, and even at that I did not feel confident enough
in what I initially collected along the highway to reliably call it KT boundary
material, for exactly the reasons you point out,...
Hello Mark,
I'm now half way through the book and can report that Prince does explain

Woodhouse's relationship to the Weston fall quite interesting.
As for #1, I think perhaps Turning Point would have been a better
Hi Mike,
I just ordered my copy online, so it will take me a few days to get the
book.
But Franklin was a real scientist - a respected one at that in Europe. So
I'll have to see what the book says for myself.
Regarding Woodhouse, Silliman seems to have had a bad relationship with him
