Re: [meteorite-list] Question about Impact Glass from Crooked Creek

I have encountered this material during field work.  I have a sample in a box here beside my desk, along with a thin section.  My sample was dominantly iron, with less glass and less bubbles, but looks pretty clearly to be the same thing.  I did some research on it a couple of years ago.  The

My 10-minute rant since all of this government shutdown business is being postured about! As it stands now, well over half my income is paid in taxes meaning that for every dollar in profit I make on a meteorite, over 50 cents goes to taxes of one sort or another.  I find this outrageous!

We did vote on it, it was called the 2012 presidential election. The entire election was ran on Obamacare. Romney promised to kill it on day one. Romney lost decisively. We voted. The losers just haven't accepted the fact that they lost. The current shutdown is the result of a losing party

The insurance is for my wife who is very healthy and is a non-smoker.  If you are over 50 and a woman, try finding affordable healthcare now that you will be grouped with people who have preexisting conditions. By the way, Obama is a smoker and is exempt from his own monstrosity, Adam .
