[meteorite-list] Elemantary School Boy Finds Meteorite in his schoolyard!!

[Fries, Marc D (3225)]

I love that idea!   I like how it emphasizes some of the best  
attributes of meteorite hunting - public outreach and just plain  
getting people excited about this stuff.  Solves the problem of  
multiple Livingstons as well.

Cheers,
Marc Fries
