Hi Jeff and All,

I had not thought about this, but Jeff is right. In the past couple
days, I have recieved several requests for certain old meteorite
books, and a few odd emails requesting infromation about past
meteorite falls. In retrospect, I bet they were from folks with a new
interest in meteorites and likley due to Steve's find.

Cheers,

Martin
