Hi List and Rob,

I did get permission from our own list member Rob Matson to post this email
he send to me.
I thought it to be very interesting and would like to share it with you.

Happy hunting, Moni



>that reminds me, have you found one lately?

Yep -- nearly every day. But all of the finds credited to me (so far)
have been Main Belt asteroids. The most interesting and rewarding
work was my precovery of asteroid 2004 DW last month. You may have
read about this giant icy TNO (trans-Neptunian object) in the news,
as it is probably the largest body that has been found in the solar
system other than the planets and their moons. You can read about
it here:

In other asteroid news, as asteroid was officially named after me
today! See page 2 here:
