I'm happy to report that the 2.6g Peeksville I purchased from Ken R. at
Astronomical Research is currently sitting atop my display cabinet in a
prominent place of honor. Crusted and sliced thin to enhance its overall
demensions, I can picture the multiple videos and the car imact which made
this fall such an exciting, newsworthy event.

Sincere congratulations on the acquisition of such a rare and beautiful veined,
monomict breccia. Even though "Peeksville" does indeed sound good - just think
of famous names like Noblesville (H4) or Estherville /MES) or Bishopville (AUB),
its name is actually "Peekskill". Well, no problem because we can imagine all the
emotional excitement of holding a piece from such a famous meteorite in one's hands!

In a copy of this mail, I'm going to attach a JPEG showing my slice from David New,
a Peekskill cartoon, and a black & white picture showing Michelle Knapp and the
"New York Car Conker" :-)

Peekskilly Yours,

Bernd
