Hello Jim and All,

I have posted a photograph of the museum ruin in case anyone out there not
been able to go to Meteor Crater and see it for yourself. The rim of Meteor
Crater is visible through the "window" in the wall.

I hope the absence of the ruin on maps does not foreshadow its destruction.
Maybe this is a time for all on this list to flex our collective political
muscle and save this ruin. Any ideas how?

Happy viewing.

Martin Horejsi
