Dear Cj it is the first of September and time for the quarterly quarrels, rants, resignations, and rejoining ritual. or Q2R3R(Cue Squared aRe cubed aRe) event in NASA parlance. Don't worry about it, what goes around comes around, literally. It is especially bad this time owing to the need for political expression madness. Everyone gets the idea that they have the only say on political punditism and feels compelled like a lemming to walk the gauntlet of political bashing and self flagilation they know their baited comment is going to elicit. Also hunting season is around the corner and many posters get early practice by shooting themselves in the foot. Frankly they are holding the barrel towards the wrong appendage but that is another quarrel I have and I'll save it that for the winter Q2R3R. IN fact I may leave the list just to see if I can remember how. I need the Venician protocol in place before. What is the Venician protocol? I need to invent 6 other names and have them on the list before I rant off in resignation. All is go ruin now with these grievous surrogate political breast beatings.

Re: [meteorite-list] Pasamonte magnetism
Dear MexicoDoug, and all; I see the phrase "...man is it magnetic" used below. I find that most folks use "magnetic" in meaning the rock is attracted to a magnet...and that is a non correct use of the word. A magnet is magnetic, as is natural lode stone. Car engine blocks although made of iron, are not magnetic. Hematite, magnetite (except for lode stone), and banded iron formation (iron ore) are not magnetic.

Hello Martin and all, Nice experiment.

Thanks for your response Bernd! As far as CI are concerned, yes they have no chondrule and I did not think of them before writing my e-mail.

Hi Bernd and all, I cannot help but be continually amazed that people choose to leave the list rather than learn to use their DELETE button. I just don't get it. When one of these ridiculous rant exchanges occur, there are TWO dead giveaways: 1) the SENDER posting to the list at that time 2) the wording in the SUBJECT box Therefore, there HAS to be some sort of motivation to read these posts on the part of the person objecting to them! IF YOU DON'T LIKE READING SUCH POSTS, DON'T OPEN THE POSTS! I have heard every possible objection to these posts, and almost every objection has merit. What does NOT have merit, given that READING THEM IS OPTIONAL, is why anyone would subject themselves to them - then leave in a self righteous huff - after they, themselves, had exposed themselves by reading them! It's not like a flasher jumped out from the bushes unannounced! The damned posts have "WARNING!" stamped all over them from the sender and subject! Its as though people at a party hear there is rotten food at the end of the smorgasbord table, and they go down to the end, fill their plate with the rotten food and eat it, and then get all outraged, and declare they are leaving the party because they were fed rotten food! I DON'T GET IT. There is a lot of food at this party, why eat the bad food and then leave in protest??? Sure, one is exposed the first post or two, but then, by sender and subject, one can simply bypass those posts until the garbage storm passes.

Hello All and whoever wants to leave, I just wanted to say that the real shame here is that "somebody" here is letting this get to them. This is going to happen in ANY forum or mailing list. this person shouldn't punish or deny themselves the other information and conversation that is put out on this list. You want fights, you should subscribe to a coin collecting mailing list. It makes these two look like best friends! I agree that instead of fighting over who's been where and how many times, they should both just get on a plane, fly to some local desert and have it out (Maybe they'll find a new meteorite while they are there). I have no problem with either parties, I buy from both and have had good, honest service as far as I can tell. That's the bottom line.

Re: [meteorite-list] urelite origins
Hello, I am not a scientist and therefore not able to analyse Raman data futher than seing which type of mineral was hit by the laser beam. But I have also heard that some scientits suggest that some diamonds in Ureilites could be presolar, and therefore not necessarily formed by shock... Also, I wonder if Ureilites were formed from carbonaceous meteorites, as we would still find some chondrules, even very rare, which is not the case... Ureilites are definitely achondrites. Well I do not know really, and I also wonder. I know from Raman data obtained on one Ureilite that we found, that diamonds are located most of the time in areas of the meteorite where mostly graphite can be found, which is quite understandable. But I do not know how the reason why some of this graphite turned to diamond can be found within Raman data. Can you explain to me with words as simple as possible, as once again I'm not a scientist!

I wonder why this kind of crazy fight happens from time to time on the meteorite list, as if some people miss it when topics are only related to meteorites, without any conflict to take part... I've been a member for almost two years now, and still manage to bear those periods of crazyness, erasing the posts after reading the ten first words when they are not interesting to me, but I must admit that it is tiring and I can understand people who get fed up. I do not know who is the person who sent this e-mail to you Bernd, and I guess he is someone the list will miss if you say so. It's a shame, I agree with you!

[meteorite-list] urelite origins
Greetings I've got a meteorite question. Having seen enough Raman data to be convinced that the diamonds in urelites are formed by shock compression, I'm wondering - does anyone have an opinion on what sort of meteorite they started out as? They had to have been carbonaceous meteorites of some sort to begin with, but the articles I've seen don't seem to offer a clear picture of what they were like before they were shocked. CM, perhaps?

This is a strange day today. Must be something in the air... Hi Bernhard, Yes, a strange day indeed. It's not a full moon either is it?

RE: [meteorite-list] Meteor Crater pic
What's that around your neck Bernhard? Has anyone been to the Soutpan crater near Pretoria in South Africa? When I was a student pilot we used to fly over it, it was a strange feeling as the ground dropped away. I lived 50km away and never visited! Now I'm way too far away. http://www.hartrao.ac.za/other/tswaing/tswaing.html This article mentions the Barringer crater in Arizona, is that Meteorite Crater?
