Hello again Mercury Nornoids,

Physics, opinions and biases aside ... can we build a concise list of
Mercury meteorite candidates already in our collections (at least
wistfully) and play a game to see if we can speculate on them one by
one - before the scientific press - with information from MESSENGER -
as candidate meteorites from Mercury? Or, better yet, not eliminate
one or more ... ;-) ?

1. Bencubbinites
2. Angrites
3. GRA 06128 & 06129
4. NWA 011 and pairings
5. Mercury Meteor (parent body Mercury or Ford?)

Sunnyside up,
Doug
