Hi, Jeff,

> drag the image to the URL address bar...

    Thanks for what is, to me, a new trick. Works
fine and makes the pictures big enough and clear
enough to see the surface features, which makes
it clear that the chances this is a meteorite very
small indeed.
    For example, it seems that the edges of those
depressions that might be regmaglypts are very
sharp. Atmospheric ablation never produces a
sharp edge anywhere and never around a
depression it's ablating out.
    There are "parallel" grooves, but they're
oriented in patches which show no general
orientation to each other. Some adjacent sets
of grooves met at right angles to each other.
There's one double groove that makes an
angled turn!
    The Universe is surprising, but for this to
be a real meteorite is too much of a surprise
to ask for.

Hey Darren,

The pics are larger but just shrunk to fit on the page. You can either save
the image and view it normally on your computer as you might any other pic
or even drag the image to the URL address bar which will enlarge it.

Cheers,

Jeff

P.S. I remain unconvinced at this stage until someone "meteoritically
qualified" says different! ;-)

Thanks, Derek.

Thanks for poting them, but unless you only took 269x202 pictures, these are
just small thumbnail images. Do you have full sized ones? And do you have
an
opinion on meteorite or not?
