[meteorite-list] Peru Meteorite Crater Hit by New Meteorite (Spoof)

[Darren Garrison]

That site has meteorite-related "spoofs" often-- I haven't checked to see if
they were all written by the same guy, but if so, whoever told him he had talent
and creativity as a writer was lying to him.  I only hope, for his sake, that he
is still in High School, because I hate the idea of an adult writing such banal,
sophomoric stuff.
