Hi, Gerry

    Go back one year in the List Archives to March 2-6, 2006.
You will find this topic talked to death (I helped). I posted.
Norm Lehrman posted. MexicoDoug posted. We kicked
around whether the LDG could be from the Kabira crater,
or any crater or impact, if it could be tektites when it's so
wet, why the fluorine/boron levels are what they are, and
much more.

    I said that they WERE tektites that had lain underwater
for millions of years when that desert was swamp and lakes,
which it was:

and in defense:

http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/meteorite-list/2006-March/021183.html

    If it had been more than a year, I'd have posted it all
again, but it's quicker to just go look at the List Archives,
if you like that sort of thing.

Subject: [meteorite-list] National Geographic Re-Airing "Ancient Astroid",
the origins of Libyan Desert Glass


Hi List,
In response to Anne Black's picture of LDG in Michael Johnson's "Rocks From
Space" a few days ago I posted news of a TV program concerned with one
theory of the origins of Libyan Desert Glass.
I didn't get much of a response from the List. I'm not sure why unless this
subject is not of interest to anyone or everyone is comfortable with their
personal understanding of the origins of LDG.
Yet if anyone is so inclined, that show, "Ancient Astroid", will be aired
again on Tuesday April 3, at 12:00 noon Eastern Daylight Time on "The
National Geographic Channel". And Oh, you're welcome in advance to anyone to
whom this notice might apply.
Have a good evening.
Jerry Flaherty
