Mike,

Asia...is that near Morrocco? It isn't? :o (ohhh)

Great stuff from Louisiana. I have a few questions.

Any idea what the name of this one might be? New Orleans or Picayune?

What's with the rusty crust...was all this material in the scum water for a
day or so?

Also, the the smaller of the two big masses shown has a greenish tint to the
crust...is that accurate and have you ever seen a crust like that?

A fragile hammerstone like this must have broken up into a lot of pieces when
it hit the house. Was 20kg really collected by the owner? Is the 891g piece
the main mass?

Let's see...how much is it worth. At 20kg...say $20K, $100K, $200k or more?

It sure looks like a nice, but plain looking meteorite. The historical
Bjurbole doesn't get more than $10/g. I wouldn't pay too much for it, but
then again I can't afford a lot of it anyway.

Good luck in the land of the Tigers. Take some pictures of the incinerated
hut. Watch your back Mike...we need you man.

On the way, or way back think about stopping in Italy for some vino with your
bud. :)

Take care and be safe please...we all look forward to your report,

John
PS I wonder if anyone else has gone/is going too...for the competition?
