Hi Larry, Martin -

Thanks for your responses, and thanks Martin for the
link.

I'm sure that anyone who had the privilege of handling
Bruno Fectay's nice martian:

while in Tucson noticed its low density. I remember
when Michael Casper let me handle one of the first new
martian meteorites back in 1999, and my sudden
understanding of exactly what 1/3 Earth's gravity
really means.

good hunting,
E.P. Grondine
