Hi everyone, Eric Olson is at my house to see the
Carancas meteorites, and he asked me to post this
link.

It is a list of every known impact crater of more than
10 meters in diameter, from which meteorites had been
found. Of all of those craters, not one, ZERO is
associated with a chondrite. Jilin and Norton County,
both masses well over a ton, had craters less than 50%
the size of the Carancas meteorite. This is very
interesting and proves how rare such a chondrite fall
is!

I am ready to forget and ignore the controversy and
focus on the science of this spectaclar event at this
time, I have had my say and told my story.
