Come to <DIV></DIV>>think of it, I may still have it in a box somewhere. My first REAL <DIV></DIV>>meteorite was a 35g etched slice of Gibeon from Alain Carion. Still have <DIV></DIV>>that one, and it looks super. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Matt Morgan <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>-----Original Message----- <DIV></DIV>>From: meteorite-list-admin_at_meteoritecentral.com <DIV></DIV>>[mailto:meteorite-list-admin_at_meteoritecentral.com] On Behalf Of Rob and <DIV></DIV>>Colleen <DIV></DIV>>Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 6:16 PM <DIV></DIV>>To: meteorite-list <DIV></DIV>>Subject: [meteorite-list] My First Piece <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Hello all- <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>The list seems a bit quiet as the holidays end, associations begin, and <DIV></DIV>>Tucson draws near. I thought I'd fill up some bandwidth with this: <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>My first meteorite was a 52 gram etched part slice of Gibeon purchased <DIV></DIV>>at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). Prior to this <DIV></DIV>>sighting, I had absolutely no idea that a single individual could be <DIV></DIV>>sole owner of such a wonder. I gladly shelled out $110 for it and kept <DIV></DIV>>it alone for many years. Then, during a period of time in my life driven <DIV></DIV>>by boredom, I decided to go to the local fairgrounds for every gathering <DIV></DIV>>they saw fit to hold. Antique glass, guns, knitting, poodles, and one <DIV></DIV>>day....gems. A chance encounter there with Edwin Thompson opened my eyes <DIV></DIV>>to the fact that there were plenty more meteorites to be had. The rest <DIV></DIV>>is history, present, and future. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>I would enjoy hearing how others got started, that first piece that <DIV></DIV>>infected you with meteorite madness. Some of you have multi-million <DIV></DIV>>dollar collections, others on this list only a few prized pieces. They <DIV></DIV>>all had to start with one lowly piece as the foundation, the one we <DIV></DIV>>will never sell or trade away. What was it? <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>P.S. If this thread has already been done, please forgive me and direct <DIV></DIV>>me to the archives. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>-- <DIV></DIV>>Rob Wesel <DIV></DIV>>-------------- <DIV></DIV>>We are the music makers...and we are the dreamers of the dreams.
