Six more guesses today, so here's another summary update for
Tuesday.  Carbonaceous still leading OC, with C03 now representing
a quarter of all guesses:

Bjorn Sorheim:          OC
Bernd Pauli:            LL5 or LL6
Pat Brown:              carbonaceous
Marcin Cimala:          CO3 or CM2
Mark Ford:              CV3 (Allende-like)
Matteo Chinellato:      CM2
Martin Altman:          CO3 (Kainsaz)

Steve Arnold (Chicago): CI (I assume that's what you meant)
Sergey Vasiliev:        OC
Jim Strope:             CO3
Alexander Seidel:       carbonaceous (I'm rounding 84.4% to 100%, but
                        note for the record your 4.4% nod to H)  ;-)
Roman Jirasek:          L4

Carbonaceous:  12.5 out of 22  [56.8%]
  CO3:  5.5
  CM2:  2.5
  CV3:  1
  CI:   1
  CK:   0.5
  unidentified carbonaceous: 2

OC:  9.5 out of 22  [43.2%]
  LL4,5, or 6:  3.5
  L4:  1
  L6:  1
  H4:  1
  unidentified OC:  3


I'll let someone else keep a tally of the TKW guesses... --Rob
