Bob, They are definitely the most magnetic rocks in our universe.   Hope this 
sheds light on some of the "other forms" you are after: most  meteorites 
attract magnets, gold, silver, brass, copper, zinc, bills, and  electronic moneys, 
credit cards, paypals, money burning holes in pockets,  reporters, students, 
scientists, sky gazers, lovers (at Monze time!), birthday  boys and girls, 
gift givers, Dads (and Moms), kids, folks, curiosity seekers,  collectors, 
entrepreneurs, aventure seekers, hunters and providers, braggarts,  dogs, German and 
Canadian cats, space fans, auctioneers, anomalous friends,  gamblers, 
speculators, maniacs and fools alike.   It is that universal  attraction that makes 
them so special...Doug (typed oh so proudly from The  United Mexican States).


Bob Evans kindly quizzed:

Sorry Little  Dougie,

But here in the states Magnetic means " having magnetic  properties ".
I think they're implying that the material attracts  iron.
Have you seen a meteorite that attracts some other form of metal?  Please 
enlighten me, my friend south of the border
