Default Has anyone seen the story about the guy in KS. who found a 1400 lb Meteorite

He had it mounted on his truck and he wants millions for it. Here's the link if interested or if you haven't seen it yet as i just did.http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051111/...nt_meteorite_1

If it's old news i'm sorry. HH Bill

I found a conical shaped "hot rock" today....about 2 inches long. I briefly thought "meteorite?......nah"....and chucked it in the woods. I'm so "not swift" sometimes. I didn't know they were typically conical ....wish you'd posted that yesterday. I'd have hauled home "another piece of crap" as my wife calls my "non coin" finds.
