[meteorite-list] An announcement from Joel Schiff

[Zelimir Gabelica]

Hello Joel,

John is just right. This year (and probably since a very long time), you 
are blessed by the vast Space and the Skies. Your every day life continues 
to be very closely linked to some event originating form "somewhere between 
Mars and Jupiter"...
The meteorite that fell almost in your backyard (or dining room...) was 
actually some kind of sensation today around here (in the antipodes of 
NZ!), as reported and debated  by dozens of news and (sometimes very local) 
papers.

I hope you could at least expertize the body and possibly get some 
fragment, if not being able to buy the whole piece. If so, what a better 
place for this space invader than the desk of the editor of "Meteorite"!
We are all lasting to read your next detailed report in our favorite Journal.

Now, the idea of John and Anne wishing you could "do" Tucson next year, 
reminds me to renew my invitation for Ensisheim-2005 (already scheduled for 
June 17-19).
You know that every year, we use to emphasize a specific theme and exhibit 
the meteorites that are related to the theme.
The NZ fall actually gave me the idea to feature, for 2005, that simple theme:
"meteorites that made some damage upon their arival on earth".
Damage to objects (cars, mail-boxes, houses, ROOFS...!) or to animals (like 
Macau, Valera or even Nakhla - even if the dog story is possibly pure 
fantasy) or even to human beings...
A great theme by no means...that I now firmly retain for sure and anounce 
next Friday when the 2004 edition starts

If you could show up in 2005 with at least a fragment of the new bolide, it 
could be the "queen of the show" at our special exhibit.

Keep us in touch!

Best wishes,

Zelimir
