[meteorite-list] FUN QUESTION for ALL to Participate

[STARSANDSCOPES at aol.com]

Hi Don,  If I had no saw or polishing  options at all, I would take the 
slice.  There is nothing like seeing  billion year old space dust chondrules frozen 
in time and holding that in your  hands.  Crust is more of an acquired taste 
that must be (generally  speaking) learned to be appreciated.  That said, I 
guess it depends on the  crust we are talking about.

Hi  List. Ok you collectors out there.....you can only choose 1 of these 
choices  and lets assume you have no cutting equipment since I know how SLICK 
some of  you are out there!! lol .. Would you rather have a slice meteorite 
with NO  CRUST, or would you rather have a fragment meteorite with a fair 
amount OF  CRUST?
Curious minds want to know!
Sincerely
