[meteorite-list] TODAY: Meteorite lecture at UA-Lunar & Planetary Lab

[John Lutzon]

        Ms. Hill,

     Thank you!!. Excellent. Looking forward to a smooth landing and the 
analyses of findings in a future "Noticed" webinar.
   Again, perfect; history, progress, procedural processes and now just 
waiting for the unknown.

  John
