G'Day Ruben
Don't get me wrong, it's a great tribute. I just feel because of the current
circumstances and the sudden news, that we should take some time out to show
respect. I know alot of people out there who have close relationships with
Richard, would just like to remember those special moments. I think it would
have been a little more appropriate to way lay this to a future date and
discussion. I think it's a great idea, but ill-timed due to the current
news. Please forgive me if I'm wrong, that's just the way I feel and it's
no reflection on the rest of the list.
Thanks Ruben.
John

Hey John ,
I don't get it? What better way to offer tribute to Mr. Norton than start a
hall of fame on this day in his honor?
Just my opinion....

Come on. Enough is enough. We've received some sad news today, at least give
everyone 24 hours to reflect on great moments and pay respect to a great
person.

Eric is a great guy, I think he did a good thing by getting it and Im sure
he would be a capable host for the HOF. I have spoken with him many times
and have enjoyed our discussions.
I do think that a non profit type person/group should own/run the HOF
however as I think that something of this would need to be done by a group
that has no profit interests involved.
I hope Eric does not take this personal, but I think a meteorite dealer
should not be the actual owner of the HOF.
The IMCA, in my opinion, would be the best bet for an outlook of legitimacy
in the community.

Great, maybe it was Eric (who already volunteered) or
another member that will!
