[meteorite-list] how many lunar/martian meteorites?

[Michael Blood]

Matt & all,
        I think the "not so rare" is in reference to when there
Were only 6 known SNCs and ONE known lunar. (anyone
Remember when Bob Haag had THE only one - walnut
Sized?)
        So, in that context, "not so rare" makes perfect sense.
(of course, relative to TKW (diamonds) and numbers of
Recorded meteorite falls/finds, will always be very rare).
        Michael
