Hi,

    National Public Radio ran a segment today on the
discovery of the Kabira crater by Farouk El Baz, with
an interview with him. It's 3 min 39 sec and doesn't contain
too many errors. It refers to "desert glass" but not by its
technical name (Libyan Desert Glass), and says it was
discovered 70 years ago, which is silly, since it was
described scientifically in 1850 and has been known
since paleolithic times. You can listen to the segment at:
