[meteorite-list] - "witness" to July 6 Fireball PA

Dirk,

Yea, it is hard to answer the question: "What are meteorites  worth?"  
Personally I don't like to lie to people and say they are not  worth anything.   

Especially when a simple search on ebay will  show that meteorites are 
indeed worth from around 5 cents a gram up to $1,000 a  gram.  

When the reporters pressed me how much these would be worth,  I refused to 
give a number. I told them I didn't know, and there were too many  factors 
that would determine what they are worth. So I guess they went with the  
simple shorter quote.

I am not sure what you mean by "Anther Pirate  show?"  Would you expound?
