[meteorite-list] NWA 869 - FYI: an L3-6

[John.L.Cabassi]

G'Day Bernd, Al and List
Ah yes, the reclassification could be a windfall or a downfall, but very
interesting. I don't know how many of those I've given away. Oh well,
the recipients were happy, so was I.

Cheers

Greetings Bernd and all,

That cost me more than a few information cards. Best!
