[meteorite-list] The Lorton meteorite in a vacuum cleaner
Carl and List, Today I was able to speak with someone on the phone about the vacuumed used to clean up the mess from the Lorton meteorite fall and she had stated that the vacuum bag was sent to the Smithsonian. Well I guess Smithsonian has everything covered and is making sure no one has fragments from the Lorton meteorite fall.

Has anyone given the thought of obtaining the vacuum cleaner bag used to clean the offices? It still might not be too late and with the doctors permission, of course. Judging from the photos, there may be little micros that may have been overlooked and vacuumed. A dusty search but with a face mask, gloves and a strong magnet, who knows?

Depends on how full the vacuum bags are originally. May take weeks before they need replacing. For the price of a new bag, the doctors just might let you have the old ones. Raises the level of meteorite hunting, doesn't it? Anyone out in Virginia that might want to try it? Carl Hi Carl, That's actually a very good idea, but the bags are probably tossed already - or the canister was emptied already. Or maybe not..

Re: [meteorite-list] The Lorton meteorite in a vacuum cleaner
Good Morning All, Darren Garrison has pointed out to me that my novel idea of saving micros of Lorton in a vacuum bag is not so novel afterall. I thought this was really great and wanted to share this info with the other two members of this list who didn't know about it like myself. Thanks again, Darren, and I hope you don't mind me mentioning. http://www.schoolersinc.com/meteorites_p_14.htm I had already thought some slogans to use in case this idea met some resistance: 4.567 billion years in space, FOREVER in a landfill. Go green! Save our planet and meteorites! Yeah, I like the first one better. Car* _ Your E-mail and More On-the-Go.

Thanks again, Darren, and I hope you don't mind me mentioning. This morning I tried to photograph my krumbs-o-Kobe, but it isn't easy to get good photos of very small objects that are inside a gel capsule inside a membrane box. Here's the best of the set: http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/3538/kobekrumbs.jpg __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
