Subject: [meteorite-list] Congratulations Todd Parker

Hi List,

I would like to congratulate Todd Parker on his new Arizona chondrite
discovery. I had the pleasure of hunting with Todd Parker and Larry
Atkins recently in the Arizona desert. While Larry and I were sitting
on a hill taking a water break with Brix, Larry's phone rang with a
very excited Todd on the other end. We could see him down below us, so
we quickly rushed over to see what he had found. We saw a beautiful
chondrite in situ. Todd was recording his find and preparing to take a
photograph when Brix ran up and gave the meteorite a sniff and a lick.
Todd was the first one to see the meteorite and Brix was the first (and
only) one to lick it! : ) It is a  30-40 gram chondrite with fusion
crust and visible metal flakes on on the broken end. It looks like
Lawrence may have another meteorite to classify from Arizona.
Congratulations Todd!
