This is a beautifully sculpted stone, but based on the images at: < http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html <http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html> > it does not appear to be meteoritic. What might be perceived at first glance to be flow lines are most likely the result of hundreds of years of sandblasting in the Sahara. The second image, showing a large pile of stones: http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME09.html <http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME09.html> is not resolved enough for me to decide either way. Best, Rob ------_=_NextPart_001_01C19A34.DE1E5030 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.3315.2870" name=GENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002>Hi Vince and List,</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002>I think we have another excellent candidate for our growing meteorwrong page.</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002>This is a beautifully sculpted stone, but based on the images at:</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002><<A href="http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html">http://users.skynet.be/meteorite.be/keskeME08.html</A>></SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=882421100-11012002>it does not appear to be meteoritic.
