If we all would do our very best to be banned, we all could meet here again, same place, same host, same people, but new definition: "Salon des Refusés" (Salon of the Rejected). Well, that's stolen from Paris, but anyway: for us a new chance, a new perspective of being outcasts together in a hostile surrounding world. Could be helpful in creating a serene atmosphere of solidarity.

The shock from the ban lasted exactly 3 months, Nov 05 - Jan 06, one Ad per month - since last February the notorious mess again. Oops, if I reread my email, I didn't want distract beginners to ask their questions, they are of course welcome and they will find answers and advice from the list members - there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers. I only wanted to demonstrate, that this ugly person, pretending to playing possum, has nothing else in mind, than to systematically abuse this list for his sales spam, where all other meteorite offerors, who have by far more to sell, demonstrate their self-discipline in advertising once per week. And I really can't understand, why such great persons like Terry B. aren't tolerated on this list anymore, only because once it was simply enough for them to read that garbage and they found strong words for that, while this diabolic clown has the right to carry on and on and on. Hehe, Dirk, be prepared to be banned too. Buckleboo! Martin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Martin Altmann Gesendet: Mittwoch, 29.

This year alone, Steve Arnold Chicago had on this list 76 ADs. His worst month was January with only a single AD, his best November with 16 ADs. We feel discriminated, Chladni's Heirs are 3 dealers, so we ask kindly for the permission to post 247 ADs per year here on the list, although we might be not so honourable and important meteorite dealers like Steve Arnold, Chicago. The rest of his posts consisted mainly of Wanted-Ads; reports, which specimens he just bought (to resell them in most cases after a short while); chatting-ups to reputable sellers; garnished with announcements to quit collecting/selling forever, promises to obey to the list rules in future, questions, which he could have answered easily by himself, in reading a beginners book or using google and lachrymose complaints, that in his innocence, he couldn't understand, that he is attacked by list members. None of the 800(?) list-members dared ever to behave in such a ruthless and rude manner and I ask myself, how long we have to swallow also in future.
