[meteorite-list] Unbelievably late package - my story

[Eduardo.]

Walter
Sorry to hear that
I was at Denver on 9/11, and had to ship 5 boxes with stones (up to 20kg 
each) back to Argentina. 
I was afraid that they will be lost, but fortunately all arrived safe, 
even more, they were some of the faster shipments I had. They took about 
3 weeks for a surface shipment. 
Normally takes 1.5 monthes to a record of 5 monthes to arrive. This 
record one arrived 2 monthes after I made a claim, so it seems it was 
delayed in some of the post offices and when the claim arrived to that 
office the box was found and sent.
