Hi Bob:
  Please feel free to visit our website: http//www.meteoriteassociationofgeorgia.org
Our web master has done a great job with the site (especially with the tektite pages since that's his first love.) He has also listed lots of information on Georgia meteorites which may help you design your pages.
  We'd also like to share links with you.

Anita Westlake, President
Meteorite Assn. of Georgia

Subject: [meteorite-list] Colorado meteorite statistics and the COMETS club

Hi all,

I had been thinking about Colorado meteorites (since I live in Colorado and
am a member of the COMETS club), like "How heavy is the heaviest meteorite
in Colorado?" and "How many falls are there in Colorado?" and "How many fell
or were found in each decade?", so I updated the COMETS website last night
with a fun "statistics" page.
http://www.peaktopeak.com/comets/comets_stats.htm All of the stats were
derived from data from the Meteorical Bulletin Database on the web. Please
check it out when you have time. There's even a link to a nice color chart.
:-)

I can add more stats if you let me know what else you want to know (and if I
can find the data to create the stats), but I have to admit that I don't
have a lot of time to do research and I'm not a statistician. :-) If
anyone else has a similar website with information like this for other
states, regions or countries, I would love to know about it so I can see
what else they have and then do the same for Colorado.

In case you didn't know, COMETS is short for COlorado METeorite Society,
which is a club of meteorite enthusiasts in Colorado and abroad. The
website is still a "work in progress" and we'll post pictures from the
upcoming Auction (as Anne announced in her other e-mails) and also the Party
the following night. If anyone has any COMETS-related or Colorado
meteorites-related material that they would like to share with everyone,
please send it to me and I'll put it on the website.

Thanks and regards,

Bob Loeffler
