Hey Brian and all...

I've heard news and it wasn't from a friendly dinner invite. I heard news
from 'boots on the ground' (or in the skies!). Mike Farmer called me in
route, on the plane, of where they were going and, "Where the hell are you,
Greg?!". Simply put, family first, rocks second!!

That said, I will put my money on people who call me and share 'before' they
invite, that way all information is shared and enjoyed by those who can zero
in on the strewnfield while going out in all directions as a team! Find one,
two... on to the little fresh stones who decided to land on Planet Earth!!
:)

Best Regards,
Greg

Hi list,

I'm sure if there has been anything found that the guys are keeping quiet
about it for now. I wouldn't be telling the world, certainly not the news
until they've got the area mapped out and found a good sum of specimens.

The area is probably more remote than Mifflin, Wisconsin and far less
populated than Park Forest, Illinois. I'm sure the guys don't want the Tulsa
or Oklahoma City news people out there.

Also, I certainly wouldn't depend on the news to get my "news" of a
meteorite fall, most of them have no idea what a meteorite looks like or
where it's from unless they watch Meteorite Men or follow the hobby. Most of
them are too busy chasing other stories to get their face on TV and worrying
about their appearance and advancing their careers. ;-) Remember every fall
from Park Forest to Mifflin took the news at least a day or two to even
report it and even then they all acted like it was unbelievable like an
alien sighting, until someone from a major museum or university or a
Meteorite Hunter verified the information.

All the best to those out there in the fields. Let us know when you can what
type you think it is and send photos when possible.


thanks for keeping in touch.

Brian

Nothing has been found. Besides, I'm sure we would have seen reports in the
news by now.
