Hi Bob, Ruben, and List,

Oops, sorry if my words should have given rise to any doubts
regarding the sincerity and/or integrity of the finders involved!

No, there is no doubt about my Franconia specimen being
(a) a genuine Franconia meteorite and (b) an H5 chondrite.

Bob, please let me now quote from your own mail to the
List as I was referring to *that* part of the story:

"At the time I wrote that article, it was thought that the
finds being made by Mike Miller and Ruben were not paired to
Franconia. Mike thought that his finds were from a different fall."


Best wishes,

Bernd
