Hi
Interesting, but I don't think this supports any tektite formation theories.
Tektites were either plastically deformed when proximal, spalled when medial or
ablated and then often spalled when distal.
Rain drops are, however, very informative about proximal tektites, which
basically follow

I'm sure if there has been anything found that the guys are keeping quiet
about it for now. I wouldn't be telling the world, certainly not the news

I've heard news and it wasn't from a friendly dinner invite. I heard news
from 'boots on the ground' (or in the skies!). Mike Farmer called me in

Hi John and List,
And there are 186 collections with almost 17000 specimens and about
19000 images. The site must be chewing up an enormous amount of
bandwidth. I'm glad I don't have to pay that monthly bill.
I try to reduce redundancy by only listing a single specimen for each
find or fall.
From friends near Torreón I have a lead on a recent fall that hasn't been
reported here yet. I'm hoping to get a guide in the desert to help find
something and have a good time too. I'm willing to meet anyone who also
heard of a fall there and are willing to risk the Mexican desert.
I plan to
Shh! don't let the flatearthers over on Meteorobs know about this as they
