  Happy Birthday Murchison. Still stinky after all these years!

  In the latest issue of the Journal Science, there are two articles =
about Tagish Lake totaling almost 6 full pages! There are many different =
comparisons between Tagish Lake, Murchison, and Allende. The article =
really shows how much different Tagish Lake is from other CCs.

  In the 31 August issue of Science, there is a wonderful 2.5 page =
interview with John Wood about his feelings that "After two centuries of =
dissecting chondrite meteorites, meteoriticists aren't getting any =
closer to understanding them."

  And last year, there was an astrobiology article in Science with a =
picture of a chondrule-filled individual taken by yours truly. I am =
impressed that with all the science disciplines presented in the Journal =
Science that they can devote as much time to meteorites as they do.=20

  For you viewing pleasure, here is a link to a picture of my 100 gram =
Murchison individual at the Meteorite Exchange site:

  http://www.meteorite.com/gallery/mh_murchison2.jpg

  When ever I dig it out of the airtight padded box it lives in, I can =
still smell the organics, and it looks like it fell yesterday or maybe =
even today.

  Cheers,

  Martin
