Hey List,
If a meteorite hits a dirt road, is it a hammer stone?
If it has been run over by meteorite hunters and roughed up a bit, is it a
hammered hammer?

Hello List,
I, too, had a great time at the new West, Tx fall. My son and I arrived there
on Wed afternoon, Feb 18th, 3 days after the fall, and hunted all day Thu-Sat,
the 19-21st. This was our 1st father-son hunt and it turned out very well, as
we found 5 specimens, with a total weight of
Hi all,

total of the entire trip.

I join Robert in requesting an exact stone count and weight tally in order to
get this fall as close as possible to exact number of stones and TKW.
I have the following
Woolard 7 = 407g
Wesel 10 = 255g
Farmer 23 = 531.6g
I know that more than 45 meteorite hunters showed up in the field, so
This scientist could only make it there for one and a half days, on my own
dime, and would have loved to stay. A downside of our profession is that

Actually Marc, I also went there on my own dime, like the other roughly 50
meteorite hunters. I have no paycheck coming in like you, I have to hustle if I
want paid. I have no retirement fund other that what I sock away on my own, no
health-care plan, no sick days or any other form of money
A thanks goes out to Steve Arnold (Chicago) for a freebie slice of an
unclassified meteorite just for paying attention. Thanks Steve! Jason
