Hi Michael,

Interacting is a little light. Ron, and myself among others have been
together from about 8am till midnight for the past three days. It's
been a Stardust and Meteorite thrill ride here in Houston.

Among many other thills today including a viewing of the Stardust
collection tray as they worked to remove the fist of the aerogel
cells, we also spent time in the Antarctic meteorite clean room at
JSC. Here is a pic of Ron and me in front of Big Lew, the largest
stone meteorite found in Antarctica, somewhere around 220 pounds.

Wish you all were here!

Martin
