For Greg and anybody else who missed Michael M.'s post, here it is
again.

And if that can help you decide, here is what I posted on Club Space
Rock last week:

"Lets see if I can light a fire under some of you. Here is the deal:
the first 2 people who donate $200 (each) get to go to the Jewelry page
on my website: http://www.impactika.com/Jewelry.htm ,go down to the
"Wire-Wrapped Meteoritical Jewelry" section and pick a pendant, anyone
of them Libyan Glass or Sikhote-Alin, silver wrapped or gold-filled.
(That's a $50 value, guys!!)
Ok? Now who is going to be first?"

This offer still stands. But hurry, time is running short.

Greeting, team meteorite!

So far the show of support to send Marissa on a meteorite hunting
adventure has been both generous and inspiring. With only 6 days left
in the funding campaign we're almost to our goal, and there are still
a ton of great perks to be claimed! Please continue to contribute and
keep spreading the word, every little donation helps!
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/marissa-s-meteorite#home

Please also keep in mind that the funding goal is a minimum amount
that we estimated would be needed to get Marissa geared up and into
the field, however, if we can surpass the goal that would be fantastic
as it would provide for more flexibility in what Marissa is able to
purchase. Any funds not used for the trip will be donated by Marissa
to charity. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/marissa-s-meteorite#home

Again, I can't thank everyone enough who's helping to make this
happen, you all area rock stars!
Michael in so. Cal.
