Congratulations to several of you who were right on the money. Here
are the top 20, including the number of times the full page was
viewed. I almost suppressed the results for the pseudometeorites in
the #2 and #5 positions since most of these hits were people
following links from the Meteoritical Society website, where they
were singled out. Although scientists make extensive use of the
site, these hits are clearly dominated by collectors, dealers, and
nonscientists.
