Greetings!

Herbert Raab asked me to post this message to the list:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a small amount of the Almahata Sitta meteorite (in other words,
fragments of asteroid 2008 TC3) have recently appeared on the
collectors market, I want to bring up the idea to collect some money
to donate on of these sample to Richard Kowalski. Richard is founder
of the Minor Planer Mailing List (MPML) and discoverer or 2008 TC3.
Richard is also a meteorite collector, and I hardly can think of any
collector that deseves such a specimen more than Richard.

Anyone who want's to donate some amount to support the purchase of a
Almahata Sitta meteorite sample for Richard can go to this site and
send the donation:

A big "Thank You!" to anyone who contributes!
