There is no winner yet for the last trivia contest. I received
several replies and some correctly guessed one of the four meteorites.
So, here are some clues :

Greetings List,
I am offering a free Cohiba Pequeno cigar and a free meteorite to the
first person who can answer the following meteorite trivia questions :
Question : The Nevada Meteor of 1894 is though to be associated with
what meteorite find?
Question : What 1970's meteorite struck a shed
Hi List,
The contest is still open and the Matt's of the list are hot.
Matt Morgan guessed one of the three.
And Matt Martin guessed two of the three.
But nobody has correctly guessed all three yet. :)
Good luck!

the great personalities of meteoritics? If not for this connection,
this very small and obscure OC would be without trivia value.
The answer to question # 3 is simple - It is the meteorite named Hopper!
Take a look ;-)
