Hello Bernd List
I have seen some nice pieces of Tamdaght and i confirm the presence of a lot
of slickensides, confirming the high level of shock of this meteorite. That
could actually partially explain the fact that it was broken in many pieces
at 'landing', plus the fact that some of those

Hello Bernd, How can this technically be an 4-5 if there are no chondrules?
I could understand sparse but isn't devoid a 6 or IMB? I have some 4 and

Thank You Ben--I don't disagree. Apparently it has already been resold but my
point was how does one estimate that the meteorite was an H4 if there were no
chondrules visible? It isn't impossible, I guess, but on the face value of the

Hi Bernd, Elton, others,
I can confirm several chondrules visible on fragmented surfaces on the Tamdaght
material, some of them quite large. However its probably safe to speak of a
rather more than less equilibrated chondrite.
As Morocco has a distinguished expert with Dr. Hassna Chennaoui of
I can confirm several chondrules visible on fragmented sur-

So, maybe my two smallish fragments are just too small to reveal any
chondrules. Furthermore, if some of these chondrules mentioned are
really that large, this may hint toward an

Thanks for counting Greg. I count too. We all count. Unfortunately Cottingham
doesn't think anyone should count. He says he can't count. He keeps proving
that a 7 day week confuses him so we have to believe what he says if we have
any kindness in our hearts. Hey Michael! Do we count at all?

It sounds like you're counting now! Very good. You understand the concept of

happy to help. Maybe you should appoint one of us to count for you if you're
too distracted to keep track of all these silly rules.
Hi Elton all,
In my experience... you just never know what something might come back as.

Hello,
I agree with most of what you say. It is good to wait and have patience.

Sometimes items can be bought for less if you wait. Other times there
I don't see the difference in Michaels approach to any other retail outfit.
Target has sales all the time. I buy something one week, then the next month it
is on sale. What can you do.

especially if you are a returning
I have no problem with receiving more than one Advertisement email per week

Get some rare earth magnets and a yard stick (or something similar). Tape,
wrap, or glue them on one end and you are done. I don't have any specific sites
to get the magnets, but a quick search on the net should bring up some good
sites.

Sounds like good advice - if I see any meteorites at Target's, I be sure to
wait for a sale.
There are also some higher end stores that will tell a customer to wait
because the item of interest is going on sale.

Hi Bob,
I agree, trying to outbid an automated program is an exercise in
futility. I learned that lesson while bidding on antique telescopes
on eBay. So, now when I bid on meteorites, I place my highest bid
first and then walk away. If I win or lose, I never pay more than
