Dean's quite right!
For the past few weeks, I've been hearing reports that there was a new
witnessed fall on 11th February "near Erfoud". Let's hope that it really IS a
new fall, rather than just marketing hype by the Moroccan sellers.

If Fed-Ex can make it through the heavy snows we've had here this weekend, I
should have it here sometime tomorrow afternoon.

Cheers,
Rob.
