[meteorite-list] Arthur Ehlman Scholarship Party Movie Download

[MARK BOSTICK]

Hello Everyone,

I "found" a neat photo diary movie showing friend of mine and many list 
members Arthur "Art" Ehlman, curator of the Monnig meteorite collection, on 
TCU's site today.

According to the webpage, the video was made to be played at the Ehlmann 
Scholarship Party.  It is rather large, those on dial up might take a while 
to load it.  It took me about 2-3 min. on cable.

Pretty neat seeing images of Art from different time periods.

     In a side note I donated a good portion of what was a vast impactite 
collection to the museum a few months ago.  Many of these were choice 
specimens thanks to several list members I had traded with the like, or sold 
dozens of pieces of and kept the better. (Thank you to those that helped me 
build the collection, it is hard to single anyone out, so perhaps I can get 
by with giving special thanks to the European collectors and Dirk Ross).
     Monnig collected meteorites when few craters were known and therefore 
few impactites were in the collection with Ehlmann took over as curator. 
While Art had done a great job at picking up many several examples in the 
last few years, it was not too hard for me to double their inventory.  If 
any list member has any rare or special impactite specimens that they think 
might be of interest to the museum, and willing to donate them, feel free to 
e-mail me and I can help you out, or e-mail Art directly.  I have not spoken 
with Art on sending this e-mail so you might keep that in mind if e-mailing 
him.

Clear Skies,
Mark Bostick
