This Martian meteorite was once a so-called meteorwrong that eventually became one of the most important finds we have. Same for Bob V and his Martian finds, Los Angeles (was 001 and 002)...so the lesson is "don't throw away your maybes"...it is probably good to go back and look at them again every now and then. ;)
