i think its great that Ron takes the time to post relevant planetary
information
on MC. After all,not only are some terrestrial meteorites from Mars, but
Mars itself as well as all the other planets were assembled some 4.5Gyrs
ago from a population of objects the vestiges of which provide us with
terrestrial meteorites. If we ever find a conglomeritic meteorite,
information regarding early Mars would be very relevant to Meteorite
Central listees.
personally, ide rather read postings like Ron's compared to endless
messages regarding who has or has not gotten this month's issue of
Meteorite!
but this is my personal opinion which is not meant to be imposed on anyone
else who subscribes to the list
regards,
frank spera
