Hi Adam,

I really like the cards. As a trading card collector, I think it is a great 
way to get kids interested in meteorites. They'll make excellent stocking 
stuffers. You did a fantastic job on them, they look very professional.

I have a trading card with a piece of Angelina Jolie's clothing embedded in 
it and it's worth a fair bit. Your cards can only go up in value.

Thank you for your creativity,

Trace
