[meteorite-list] OK dinner

Hi list,

I'm sure if there has been anything found that the guys are keeping quiet 
about it for now. I wouldn't be telling the world, certainly not the news 
until they've got the area mapped out and found a good sum of specimens.

The area is probably more remote than Mifflin, Wisconsin and far less 
populated than Park Forest, Illinois. I'm sure the guys don't want the Tulsa 
or Oklahoma City news people out there.

Also, I certainly wouldn't depend on the news to get my "news" of a 
meteorite fall, most of them have no idea what a meteorite looks like or 
where it's from unless they watch Meteorite Men or follow the hobby. Most of 
them are too busy chasing other stories to get their face on TV and worrying 
about their appearance and advancing their careers. ;-)  Remember every fall 
from Park Forest to Mifflin took the news at least a day or two to even 
report it and even then they all acted like it was unbelievable like an 
alien sighting, until someone from a major museum or university or a 
Meteorite Hunter verified the information.

All the best to those out there in the fields. Let us know when you can what 
type you think it is and send photos when possible.


thanks for keeping in touch.

Brian

Nothing has been found. Besides, I'm sure we would have seen reports in the 
news by now.
