Dear Matt and list,

Has a terrestrial age been determined for Lafayette? I'm having a
problem at the moment accessing the list archives, but the last time
this thread ran was in June 2000 when I asked the same question, namely,
was Lafayette a find or a fall? If my memory is correct, someone
(Robert Verish??) noted a terrestrial age had been determined and that
it argued against a recent fall, while someone else (Steve Schoner??)
argued terrestrial ages were unreliable, at least in the case of
Lafayette, given its' fresh appearance.

Best wishes,
-Charlie
