[meteorite-list] New year, new site...
Hey folks, I been consolidating my sites and pages onto a new blog. meteorites.cc (which still works) now redirects to: http://velikimacak.com/?page_id=368 Some explainers, lots of pictures of meteorites. Photos from the NHM London collection, and a summary of how to mess around with cross-polarised light. Also some general astronomy photos and beginners FAQ. Have fun, and best wishes to everyone for the New Year.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite search in the Saquia al Hamra
Hello Svend, Guido, Tracy, Carl e.a., with pleasure I affiliate myself to the line of congratulants. I've read the text in German before, without break, and I admire the manifold and precise access the author found to this breathtaking and very special region, including geology, geomorphology, climatology, biology, history, culture etc., not to forget to mention his talent for characterizing people, situations (sometimes comical, sometimes not) and utmost interesting pieces of wood he met on his way. Well, there was somewhat else ... yes, of course, meteorites not at last. Congratulations on those wonderful finds, Svend. I especially liked your description of the hunt itself. Not to forget, the whole thing flavored with a good taste of humour and sarcasm. More of such stuff, please. Best regards, and may 2011 be a good year for all of us.

Svend, List, That was beautifully written and most entertaining. I feel very fortunate to be privy to such amazing adventures like this and others that are put up here on the list. This story is a great example of what meteorite hunting is all about for me personally. Camaraderie, adventure, discovery, documentation and science all mixed with just a hint of danger! Thanks for the great story!
