[meteorite-list] METEORITE MARKET DISCUSSED ON PUBLIC RADIO

[Sterling K. Webb]

Hi,

    Yesterday, Sept. 13, the NPR program "Marketplace"
had a short story about the market for meteorites. The text
of the program can be found at:
http://marketplace.publicradio.org/shows/2006/09/13/PM200609135.html
    There is also an audio link entitled "Listen to This Story."
The program featured interviews with Michael Cottingham,
Randy Korotev of Washinton University (St. Louis), Dave 
Radosevich, and Robert Pearlman of CollectSpace.com.
    The interviewer actually used the classic Carl Sagan phrase
"billions and billions," but in the financial context that the 
"meteorite trade is worth billions and billions of dollars."
    The program "Marketplace" is public radio's stock market,
corporate news, and big business news segment.
    Worth a listen, meteorite fans, if for no other reason than
to hear meteorites make the financial news.
