Hello Steve Arnold, Chicago and list,

on some of the lunars and mars specimens.But with the main masses,you will
always win."

While that was a little more then one word, and not related to your subject 
line, it seems you are confused on meteorite naming rules for meteorites in 
high collection areas.  I have seen you make this statement before on the 
Dhofar "main masses".  That none of them are paired.  I do not think you 
will get anyone else to agree with that statement.  Pairing in quite obvious 
in many cases.

However, Dhofar's do come with cordinates...and all but a few are 
classified.  Using the cordinates and classification you can purchase Dhofar 
meteorites that are likely unpaired, with others in your collection.

Clear Skies,
