[meteorite-list] Paris, France CM Meteorite

[Mexicodoug]

Ted is absolutely right. These aren't isolated cases. It goes back 
much, much earlier than that, too. Besides the Indiana Martian from the 
1930's found in a drawer, consider the cases of Zacatecas (1792), or, 
Durango (1800's) supposedly from Chihuahua, or jejeje - how about 
Tucson's own epic opera story (the Ring) ... also, did you know there 
is one official Iron named "California" which has worse locality info 
than Coahuila ... The fight has come a long way but history seems to 
repeat itself every now and then ...

Holiday Cheers
Doug

Not really - consider LA001 002, that supposedly came from a California
desert, but not LA.
