Kelly,

That makes a lot of sense, thanks... where I live, here in the Lake District
in the north of England, I'm surrounded by glacier-carved valleys, classic,
u-shaped basins, and the low lying fields are just a giant's playground of
boulders. Oh well, we can always dream! I remain convinced that there are
meteorites-a-plenty on Mars, just waiting for us to go and collect... even
wrote a section of my kids SF novel about just such an expedition... One day
there'll be a "meteorite gold rush" there, I'm sure, maybe even with
impoverished Martian field geologists sending / smuggling rare specimens back
to Earth to eager buyers...

Of course, no-one on this List would ever *dream* of doing such a thing, I'm
sure... ;-)
