Well, Graham, that's an utmost interesting subject, I guess.

At least I'd be able - together with the already mentioned colleague - to

Rub al-Khali desert in the Dhofar region.

Thanks Matthias,

Would be interesting to see any other meteorites out there that are
also artefacts/used as tools etc.....anyone else got photos to share?
