Hello Greg and List,
Yes, Mike and Jim did a fantastic job getting this wonderful meteorite to
the collector's world, but I do remember some great work that you and Adam
did with many of the scientist. I think I remember seeing pictures of you
guys at NASA, if I remember correctly, doing presentations on this stone.
That is what I meant by my comment in regards to you and Adam. Nothing was
meant to be taken away from Mike and Jim.

Take Care,
Jason
