My favorite part of the video is the mysterious stone spheres that this video
mentions as having been found in from South Africa. They are discussed at:

Even More stupid media use of meteorites

For even more hype, disaster movie "2012" also has a faux scientific website at:

http://www.instituteforhumancontinuity.org/

It is the "home" of a entirely fictitious "The Institute for Human Continuity". The website
has a fictional lottery to select those who will be saved when 94 percent of the world is
destroyed as a result of a fictional Earth Crustal Displacement. I guess nobody ever went
broke underestimating the gullibility of the American public.

In addition, ABC will have mini-series called "Impact" will be broadcast on June 21. It
is about a giant meteor storm that hits the Moon increasing it mass to the point that it
becomes twice that of Earth and threatens to fall on Earth. It is discussed in "If I watch
this I hope the Moon *will* hit the Earth" on the "Bad Astronomy" web page at:

Distribution of Meteorite Finds in Texas ???

Thu Jun 11 13:25:17 EDT 2009

Dear Friends,

Does anyone know where I might data concerning where
meteorites have been found in Texas? Are there any maps
showing the location of meteorite finds in Texas?

I am curious about the relationship between where
meteorites have been found in Texas and regional
geomorphic surfaces within Texas.

Best Regards,

Paul
