[meteorite-list] LPSC 2013: Do we have a meteorite from Mercury?

[Adam Hupe]

Yes, I remember that trip to SafSaf, Algeria.  It was horrifying being 
yanked out our Land Rover in the middle of the night by some military 
personal and having them them ask "What are you doing alive?"

Greg took a picture of the SafSaf villagers on a previous trip and then we brought the magazine with the article Greg wrote in meteorite 
magazine on a future trip.  I then wrote a followup article and used the picture Greg took for the cover piece. 


I still do not how the Berbers can survive in the middle of nowhere but 
somehow they manage.  They are truly the best hot desert meteorite 
hunters in the world, bar none!


Adam

Excerpt from the article:
"The story is different in northwest Africa, he (Tony Irving)said, and
showed a slide of several Berbers in ethnic garb reading a meteoritics
journal. The audience (including me) laughed, because it was a
surprising image."

To all who may be interested in which 'meteoritics journal' and what the image was:
