> Greetings Dear Listees:
>
> I am very privileged to have been asked by List member Sonny Clary to
> announce his discovery of a new strewn field in Nevada. Sonny has been
> carefully mapping the field for approximately two years, and has
> meticulously recorded the weight and location of each find,
> photographed each piece in situ, and assigned every specimen a field
> number.
>
> Sonny has found a considerable number of fine stone meteorites,
> crusted, and with apparent low metal content, causing us to guess that
> they may be LLs. Representative samples of Sonny's finds are currently
> undergoing classification by a prominent academic meteoriticist.
>
> Sonny invited me to visit the area with him at the end of last month,
> with the hope of doing a new story on the strewn field for "Meteorite"
> magazine. We were accompanied on this expedition our friend Jim Kriegh.
>
> I have compiled a short photo journal of our Nevada hunt, and I hope
> you will all enjoy it:
