Hi Ken and List,

Ever read T. R. LeMaire's book "Stones from the Stars"

>From the dust jacket...

"Why do 'Sociable Stone' meteorites usually fall near human
habitation, while 'Shy Irons' descend in remote desert regions"

and...

"...Earth has been spared (from cosmic cataclysm). Intentionally?
Have meteorites somehow been used to survey - even engineer -
the face of the third planet from the sun?"

On the other hand, the book has some nice photos, particularly
Willamette and Ahnighito.
