[meteorite-list] Most Unique CAI

[Greg Hupe]

Hi Larry,

I agree! Those are a couple of examples one regrets parting with afterwards, 
but then again, if I were to hog up all that I have found, purchased or 
traded for over the years, I wouldn't get the joy for sharing. To me, that 
is just as important as collecting!

Best regards,
Greg
