Hi Listees,

This article about preparations for a new land speed record using the surface of the Kalahari states that they cleared the hard pan of some 18,500 tons of rocks in preparation for the attempt. If this link doesn't work access the Drudge Report on line and look for the caption.

I cannot help but muse on how many meteorites might be in that pile of rubble and would it not be grand to search it?
