[meteorite-list] MeteoriteTimes for May is now up.

[Tom Knudson]

"Actually Barringer devoted a substantial amount of time and effort to
recover the main mass. Probably more than many of us would ever be capable
of disposing. You would consider that an admirable attribute, wouldn't you?"

   Trick question, as a member of the meteorite community, NO, he devoted a
lot of time to find the main mass so he could melt it down for the Nickel.

 As a miner out to make a buck, sure it is admirable.

Thanks, Tom
