Hello fellow tektite addicts Paul and Norm,

Paul noted "I invite you to please share your views and images of specimens
that you have either
supporting or opposing so that we can all better understand these amazing
objects."

I have a few of these somewhere and have many others I strangely left in
dealer boxes. There are a couple variations in these from what I have
noticed. Some have nice rims...where others are kind of sunk in with no
rim. Also, and almost more puzzling, I have seen more that are oval rather
then round. I would think...without anything to back me back...that the
more round versions with nice rims are bubbles coming out. It just seems to
me that would happen. Oval ones that are sunk in are a little more
confusing as I can't seem to image injection or bubbling out forming such
features. I am of course ignoring other forces at work during or after
tektite formation...such as motion or weathering.

Clear Skies,
Mark Bostick
