[meteorite-list] Meteoritical Bulletin Main Mass photos

[Jean Alix Barrat]

Hello,

it could be a good idea to include some pictures. However, it could be a 
false good idea. Most meteorites are not spectacular and will not be 
studied by anyone other than those who make the initial description. Who 
is interested in ordinary rusty chondrites? What outstanding science 
will be brought by these samples? Is it really important to complicate 
the work of the classifiers for these samples? Who will agree to do this 
work if the procedure becomes even more demanding?

Cheers,

Jean-Alix
