Please use this link: http://tinyurl.com/83grpx5 http://tinyurl.com/83grpx5 Cheers, Pete Dear List, A few days ago, one of my submissions to the Meteorite Picture of the Day, 11 Jauary, 2012, was questioned by someone as possibly not being meteoritic. http://www.tucsonmeteorites.com/mpod.asp?XX=1&WYD=&MM=1&YY=2012 http://www.tucsonmeteorites.com/mpod.asp?XX=1&WYD=&MM=1&YY=2012 I feel I owe it to Paul Swartz, other contributors, and viewers to ensure the calendar integrity hasn?t been compromised by a ?wrong?, and until it is properly addressed I feel my contribution will have a black cloud over it. I offered to send Mr. Simms additional pictures, but there was no response. Just as well ? I learned early in our common interest that beliefs have to be properly supported with more than just words, and it should be done in the open. Being an ?unclassified?, the best evidence I can put forth at this time to confirm that these pictures were indeed of meteorites is additional pictures for your consideration. Please see them here: http://tinyurl.com/83grpx5 There are lots, but I am hoping there are enough to definitively confirm their authenticity ? and I?m sure you?re all like me and could look at pictures of meteorites all day, anyway. I agree with Mr. Simms that this is an unusual meteorite. Another picture from these stones was posted on the MPOD calendar 26 December, 2011, which shows a beautiful olivine crystal in the matrix. Thanks to Mr. Simms that while taking these additional pictures I?m posting today, I found two more small olivine crystals in other stones, although they are quite a bit smaller in size. If there is still skepticism, please let me know. Pete Received on Tue 17 Jan 2012 10:25:01 PM PST |
