Inductees would have to be voted in by the public (55%) and a private IMCA type 
group (45% ) -or something like that - that way dealers couldn't just vote each 
ohter in.

We should play with the idea and refine it......

I think a "Meteorite Hall of Fame" would be a great thing and your Nininger 
page could be the perfect starting point/template.

I would like to say however, that I think dealers should not be included unless 
they personally have made substantial contributions to science and study of 
meteorites (not just buying them and having them tested)for the simple reason 
that anyone with a big enough bank account can simply buy them and resell them.
People such as Nininger, Norton, Haag, etc would be a great group to be the 
first inductees.

I did a quick search and it seems www.meteoritehalloffame.com has been taken 
however (perhaps today after the topic came up?)
