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 proba
bly 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
craters, 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?
