I think everybody on this list knows Joel, the  creater
and former editor of Meteorite Magazine. Over the past
few months  Geoff Notkin and Maria Haas has been
putting together a "thank you" gift for  his
contributions to the meteorite community. Being in New
Zealand I had  the pleasure today of presenting him
with the results of their  efforts.
Dozens of people contributed to this effort and here
is a link to  what was done with your contributions.
Joel thanks everybody involved. I was  there with Joel,
his wife and my wife and baby but I know that many
list  members were also there in spirit.
A special thanks to Geoff, Maria and AL  Lang

Thanks Dean for telling us, for taking and sending all those pictures  and 
for helping make the whole thing a surprise.
But one more thing:   How is Joel now?  Has he recovered?  We haven't had any 
news from him  in quite a while.

I am sure we would all like to know.
