[meteorite-list] Meteorite-Times for March is now up

[STARSANDSCOPES at aol.com]

WOW!   Great article on an incredible  stone.  

Everybody check it out!  Martin is back with an  "Accretion Desk" article!

Martin used to come visit me out in rural Idaho  and it was fun to polish 
rocks, put in some scope time and shoot our Glocks from  the porch.  I bet we 
were the only guys who would spend half their day on a  microscope and the other 
half target practicing.   I now live in  Tennessee and Martin in Montana.

I had missed his Accretion Desk articles  but knew he was just getting 
settled in Montana.

He brought that  incredible CAI over and at first I didn't know what it was.  
It was so big,  I figured an inclusion of some sort but didn't guess CAI.  It 
polished up  beautiful with incredible lavender hues.  I was quite taken by 
that rock  and I congratulate Martin on a successful acquisition of the other  
half.  He mentions how not buying both halves in 2005 was bothering  him and 
the better the stone looked when we polished it to 1/4 micron the more  he 
missed the other half.  I would of never guessed he could bring them  back 
together.  That must be a fun story in it's self.

Welcome back  Martin!!!
