Someone please offer this man a deal on this book!

Doug,
With all respect, the Jensen's regular price is a pretty good deal on this
book.

Tom thanks Martin and awards him ?a smiley?:

>Thanks,

Tom, shame, letting such an answer-oriented book go to waste! Meteorites A
-Z is available from several nice listmembers and is highly recommended to
answer all sorts of routine questions about dates and falls instantly!
Someone
please offer this man a deal on this book! Or see if he'll trade for a
piece of his nice Franconia find!!
:-)

Also Tom, another good source faster than posting is the NHM online
Catalogue search feature, where you can just put the year in this link I
have copied
for you below (book mark it), selecting "falls"and the year in this case.
I
tried 1977 and 1978 on two clicks and only came up with one in the US,
"Louisville", in Kentucky, but that was on January 31, not in the summer.
Instead
of specifying USA I left it open for all countries, the search works better
that way, and of course Canada was a possibility an answer for your
question!!
