[meteorite-list] Tucson Show best dates

[Michael Blood]

Hi Julie and all,
        Yes, The Inn Suites (now "Hotel Tucson City Center?")
Is the highest, by far, concentration of meteorite dealers.
However, the TIME you come should include the following:

The IMCA dinner (if you are an IMCA member, though I think
        all meteorite enthusiasts are welcome) Wed, Feb 4
The Birthday Bash - Fri, Feb 5 this year
        (big event of all meteorite people celebrating the birthdays
        Of The Great Geoff Notkin and the REAL Steve Arnold)
The Tucson Meteorite Auction Sat, Feb 6 this year
        (attended by most meteorite enthusiasts,
        where you can bid on over 100 lots of meteorite offerings).
        
        Best wishes, Michael
