location


  Dear list members,

  I am posting for my brother, Adam and Al Lang who both flew to the =
Illinois fall within three hours of hearing about it last night and were =
the first non-locals to arrive and start interviewing and collecting =
specimens. Al flew from New York while Adam flew from Seattle and they =
met at the airport in Chicago early this morning. We should have speedy =
preliminary results through the University of Washington like we did =
with Bensour.

  While they were in route, I called and interviewed the local police =
chief and others to arrange meetings for Adam and Al once they landed. =
They did meet with the chief and the Univeristy of Chicago along with =
dozens of residents of the area.

  They report that the fall appears to be about 40 kilos so far but will =
probably grow once more reports come in. At first glance, it appears to =
be an LL6 chondrite like Bensour and Kilabo but with a courser crust. It =
is loaded with troilite like the others also.

  This fall is definately a "hammer" as two houses, a fire house and at =
least two cars were hit. Adam and Al are educating locals what to look =
for and were told of one instance where a dog found a freshly crusted =
stone also! They are canvasssing the neighborhoods and mapping the =
strewn field by addresses at the outset and will follow up with GPS =
coordinates as time allows.

  If anyone in the Illinois area would like to get in contact with Adam =
and Al, please call Adam on his cell number at (425) 591-8738. They will =
be in the area for a few days or as long as it takes.

  I will report more as word comes in.

  Take care,

  Greg Hupe
  IMCA 2185
