Great job McCartney!

This is what I like to see - A list member that is doing something of
benefit to the meteorite community - very Tom Phillips like. Did I
mention what a shame it is that Tom is gone?

Anyway, if you haven't seen McCartneys' video you may be shocked to
see how very good he is on camera. His video picks up on where mine
leaves off - very informative stuff!
