Hi Richard,

Indeed! And actually deliberately so. (Though I don't have any
illusions
about it starting a meteorite trend.) ;-)

> Congrats to Rob & Bob on their find.

The find credit is all Bob's -- I was about a half mile away from him
when he made it. It is all the more impressive (for a tyro) given its
small size. Bob has a good eye -- er, two actually. :-) --Rob
