[meteorite-list] April Meteorite-Times now up (Thin section examination!)

[Dark Matter]

Amazing pictures as usual Tom. Thanks!

It is an honor to see your work since it seems every month you go
where no man has gone before. Ever.

Now I assume you didn't dismantle your son's Play Station 3 just to
get your wave plate? And as I recall, last time I was at your house,
you had a Wii.  Maybe there's something good hidden in there to hook
up to a microscope, and I know you have a screwdriver.

Cheers and thanks again for the amazing pics.

Martin
