There's two Steve Arnold's - one is Brenham Steve of meteorite men, the other Chicago Steve.Johnny wrote:All I really found with that google search was a hilarious/disturbing thread concerning Steve Arnold, high powered drugs, a shifty male nurse, a nefarious lawyer and their alleged collusion to fleece a dying woman of her asteroid collection. I'm not sure if it was serious or the nerdiest way of saying that someone would cheat a dying grandmother I've ever seen in print. It reads like something Hunter Thompson might have imagined.E.P.

I've shared a few jokes with them from the very start of that project; if you google "Grondine" "Notkin" and "meteorite" it may take you to the meteorite list archive and provide a few chuckles.
BTW, prices on meteorites from NWA (the Sahara desert) are about as low as they are going to get, and now is an excellent time to buy a few slices of rocks from space if you have any desire to. The ones on their show are usually "name" brands with way higher prices.
Possibly the Holocene Impact working group is working on that crater, or it may be accessible through the Canadian crater database. But I'm not sure about that, as this is the first I've heard of it formally.
I don't think I'm the type to buy rocks. I do love collecting, though. Got a shoebox half full of petrified wood, crinoids, corals, arrowheads and supposed meteorites I found along highways, dirt roads and in fields we plowed as a kid in north Texas and western Arkansas.
Do you have a link to that story - it sounds like the later Steve. Kind of makes life difficult for Brenham Steve.
