Dear Bernd and List:

Joel Schiff has informed me that Brother Guy Consolmagno is (or will 
be) participating in meteorite research here in Arizona. Further, Joel 
has asked me to interview Brother Guy for a future article in 
"Meteorite" -- something I am looking forward to very much. As a 
non-religious person myself, I am interested in discussing theology 
with those who maintain serious religious beliefs while still making 
significant contributions to hard science. I am hoping that Brother Guy 
will be available for an interview in the fall of this year.

I'd also like to draw your attention to Brother Guy's feature article 
about meteorite hunting in Antarctica: "The Ultimate Easter Egg Hunt" 
("Meteorite" magazine May, 1999) and his autobiography: "Brother 
Astronomer: Adventures of a Vatican Scientist":

And I'm not suggesting that you order the book from Amazon. Support 
your local independent bookseller!  : )


Sincerely,

Geoff N.
