[meteorite-list] Extremobacteria

[Becky and Kirk]

Thanks Geo,
Finally----I was waiting for someone else to bring this up. This was 
documented YEARS ago too obviously. I believe in was the crew from Apollo 12 
that brought it back.

I think everyone has their proof right there. The virus survived no 
problem---on the Moon-----and in the vacuum of space....:-)

Best,
Kirk......
