[meteorite-list] New Meteorites Discovered in Australia

[Michael Farmer]

Yes, but to dream about finding meteorites while in the Sahara Desert
hunting meteorites is normal. I dream about it every night when I am there.
Why? You find meteorites every day. For this guy to dream about finding a
meteorite cold in Australia, then find one 500 meters away from his dream,
strikes me as a stupid embellishment on a great accomplishment.

On page 62 of The Robert Haag Collection of Meteorites, Private
Collection Edition, Robert Haag wrote:  "Great Sand Sea 010.  302 grams
total.  Howardite achondrite.  These five stones were found in one lucky
day by the author after a vivid dream the night before."
