Hi Steve,
It's unfortunate about those facts being wrong but after having worked at a
newspaper many year here are a couple observations about reporters and their
stories you might be interested in. Good reporters often call their subjects
back and read back parts of the story to check the facts.
ey did. It's a performance skill, and they
performed the job very well.
Encore, encore.

Dave and all,
No, the big rock did not sell yet.
And I am pretty sure the TV show that the story is supposed to
be quoting did not state that it "sold for a million dollars," only
that it is "worth about a million dollars." I just think the reporter
got his facts wrong.
Imagine that, a rep
"It won't bring as much as an earlier find: a 1,400-pound space rock
that resembles a massive, slightly rotting yam. Ugly is only skin deep,
however. This monstrosity sold for a cool million."
So, I didn't know the "rotten yam" had sold, is that true?
I like yams.
