Thank you, Darryl,

For your opinion of and the, ['legal classification'] of term, "The World's
Largest Lunar Meteorite."

First, 'Kalahari "Anything Lunar-Related" has NEVER been physically and/or
photographically proven to be valid!

Secondly as you, (as a Professional 'World-Wide' Meteorite Dealer &
Motivator) states, "[{Questionable lunar rock (Darryl's mention}]... recent
lunar fits together as a jigsaw which is more than twice as massive [as NWA
5000]"

MARKETING ~ On Your Part...

We've only presented a "PUBLIC DISPLAY" of NORTHWEST AFRICA 5000 (NWA 5000)
of something I've been able to share without the Greed of ManKIND. My
pursuit of this project was to draw 'ManKIND' back together with my team....
NOTHING IS FOR {SALE}........ Thank you for taking a 'couple seconds' to
'Consider Your Thoughts' by my sharing a wonderful moment to 'Those Who
Deserve It' !!!

Best Regards,
Greg

Hi,

While this is great ? many congratulations! ? the exhibit headline
incorrectly states that NWA 5000 is "The World's Largest Lunar Meteorite."
In the exhibit description it states that NWA 5000 is the largest lunar
meteorite ever discovered. Despite being uber-cool, NWA 5000 never held
this distinction. Discovered nearly a decade earlier, the Kalahari 009 mass
is significantly larger. In addition, there is a recent lunar which fits
together as a jigsaw which is more than twice as massive (which Tony
analyzed many months ago). Still...very nice. All the best / Darryl
