[meteorite-list] Wayback Machine for Meteorites

[Paul Harris]

Hi Michael and Mike,

Thanks for the link Mike! I'm now way off task... :-)

Michael,
Your first catalog page was on our meteorite.com site. Our first page 
listed is Nov 11, 1996 and I don't see your site
listed but you are on the next page listed which is Dec. 10, 1997.  Your 
'97 page shows catalog updates starting in Sept. '97
so it's somewhere between 11/96 and 9/97.

Here's a page of ours that I have not seen in a very long time.  We used 
to have a Meteorite Kids page and besides my 2 daughters
there is Steve #1's daughter and niece, Eric Twelker's kids, and Walter 
Zeitschel's granddaughter. I wonder if any of the kids are now list members?
