Greenland found?



   Hi folks,
    Read this on the sci.astro newsgroup today:

"According to the mayor of Nuuk (Agnethe Davidsen) the Greenland Meteor -
which fell to the ground on early December 9th 1997 - was found today by two
local park rangers.

 The meteor was found near the settlement Qeqertarsuatsiaat
(Fiskenaesset) about 150 km south of Nuuk (Godthaab).

 The locality is called Marraq (The Moraine) and is near an abandonned
American airstrip from WWII.
