[meteorite-list] the denver show

[Michael Farmer]

Anne, there was nothing there that can not be found on Ebay every day. And Dima's LDG, I brought it to him from my garage, so yes, I was aware of it for the last 3 months.
Denver is nice, but if you wanted new meteorites, large pieces, good deals on anything other than micros, it was not there. 
I spent more on hotels and food than meteorites, what does that say? I seriously doubt that I will attend the show next year.
