I remember passing by this museum In Tucson but didn't have time to check it out. Maybe you can find som K-T boundry material. I've seen this inexpesively on ebay and elsewhere. This would more truely relate to T-rex.

All, This message is mostly for those on the list who live in or near Tucson. The mineral company where I work is right next door to the T-Rex Museum onNorth Main. It's privately owned and run. The owner has spent a lot of timeand many thousands of dollars on the exhibits and such. While it's still alittle cheesy, it's getting better by the day. I thought that a dinosaur museum should probab
ly have some exhibit onmeteorites and asteroids (I don't think I need to state the obviousreasons). To that end I've donated a couple of small meteorites and a nice(if I say so myself) set of 6 tektites from China showing all the basicshapes (I picked these literally out of thousands). One of the meteorites isa Canyon Diablo which was given to me by Jim Kriegh as a house warming giftwhen my family moved here. I already had a CD specimen so I've been lookingfor a good chance to pass it along to someone else who could appreciate it.The other is a Gold Basin that I bought a few years ago. Twink Monrad gaveme another Gold Basin specimen that she personally found. While hers issmaller than the one I had before, I'd rather keep hers for sentimentalreasons. I'm wondering if anyone else would like to donate something to the T-RexMuseum. Two small meteorites and some tektites don't make a big exhibit. I'mthinking that they could use not only other meteorites but also relatedthings like shatter cones, good photos of c
raters, or something useful foran asteroid exhibit. Feel free to decline, of course. I just promised Sam the T-Rex Museum ownerthat I'd ask. He's putting a lot of personal resources into it to better thelocal community and I wanted to help out. My own resources are limited, butsomeone else out there might like to contribute also. Thanks. -----Bob Martino, Tucson, AZ Can you really name a star?
