[meteorite-list] Fw: [IMCA] Urgent Attention: Major MeteoriteCollection stollen !!!!

[Richard Montgomery]

Bruno and Carine,
A real tragedy.  The number and quality of all of them is stunning in every 
regard.  I was shocked at the extense of the list (everyone needs to see the 
pictured inventory).  Our eyes and insight will be looking.
Sincerely, with regrets, AND HOPE,
Richard Montgomery
