[meteorite-list] Your First Meteorite - When did you Get It

[tett]

Good topic,

My first was a beautiful slice of El Hammami purchased in 1996 from 
Robert Szep.  He was prominent in those days and partnered with Roman 
Jirasek in publishing the original meteorite calendar.

A few weeks later I purchased a small end cut of Allende.

I quickly fell in love with chondrites and have never been big on 
irons.  My pocket book dictated that I needed to narrow my desires and 
since I first had chondrites I stayed with chondrites.  Even with this 
philosophy my pocket book did suffer. ;>)

Cheers!
