Another neat one...

And there is that butt again.

"Specimens: ASU holds 4.24 g distributed between a complete slice, three thin 
sections and an end piece in a potted butt."

[meteorite-list] AD - ebay: 4 Eucrites, 2 Diogenites, the only Pallasite from Oman, a Ureilite, CC's, meteorites from Moon and Mars, ...

2011-04-02 Thread Peter Marmet
Hello All,

Eucrites, Diogenites and Howardites stem likely from VESTA (an
asteroid that is thought to be a remnant protoplanet with a mean
diameter of about 530 km).

VESTA is at the center of attention now because of NASA's DAWN
Mission! Cosmic ray exposure dating of HEDs (Howardites, Eucrites,
Diogenites) indicates

that impacts have released meteoritic material at least five times in
the last 50 million years.

DAWN will reach VESTA in July 2011 and orbit this rather unknown
object for one year.

On ebay I'm selling now four very nice and interesting Eucrites, two
stunning Diogenites

and several other rare meteorites (a Ureilite, the only Pallasite from
Oman, meteorites from Moon and Mars,

CC's and two historic ones!).

They are ending in about one day. Please have a look:

Interesting observation!
The circle does look quite regular, indeed.
The question is: Why has no one found it until now?
Has it already been studied and rejected as crater?

Hi list members.

diameter of 6 miles. It might be an undetected meteorite crater.

These are igneous (volcanic) intrusive syenite, gabbro and granite structures 
about 230 to 140 million years old. You can actually see several of them as 
circular of elliptic structures in that area. They are roughly distributed on an 
old fault line perpendicular to the Red Sea.

Re: [meteorite-list] tatahouine

2011-04-02 Thread MEM
(NOTE: waste, fraud , and abuse of public funds is a matter of public interest) 
 


Steve,  If you were to ask, I am sure some folks here on the list would "rent" 
you some  meteorites-- Netflix-style-- you can swap out every 2 weeks and save 
all the 

hassle of buying high and selling low.

However I need to ask: are you using your unemployment check again to buy 
meteorites? We both know the  Illinois Department of Labor doesn't look kindly 
on using 

unemployment funds to purchase inventory for  business-activity--and they 
consider buying and selling 

business-activity whether declared or not.  In fact one isn't eligible for 
unemployment if they run their own business, and if it is an unlicensed 
business.  That gets into the fraud arenaagain.

One may not own/operate a "business" while drawing unemployment 
compensation--and...well you already know that don't you? You may not be 
earning 

"wages" but you aren't unemployed, if you are buying and selling.  Some folks 
have 

the  the IDOL Fraud Hotline on speed dial. The messages you post on the 
internet 

are  evidence that you engage in buying and selling during times of 
unemployment.

I don't know the penalty of a conviction on this but is it really worth the 
risk 

and given everything else you say is on your plate do you really want to take 
groceries money to spend $350-600 for something you will eventually sell for 
$70-80 out of desperation.

Elton

Elton, I fail to see how Steve's personal life, or business is any of 
yours. Nor can I see where your borderline libel and inflammatory post 
has any place on this list.


I'm not sure anyone here wishes to read it, and it's an obvious personal 
attack with legal implications. Just because you have something in your 
craw for Steve doesn't mean everyone here on list wants to read or hear 
about it. Your post is highly unprofessional and perhaps illegal unto 
itself. Please take personal and legal matters offlist!

Erics post about his opinion of what was or was not list business was responded 
to off list --as he demanded but did not do himself.  I also repeated for the 
nth time my desire to be removed from his mailing list for ebay auctions..sigh.

My post about a specific incidence of questionable "Ethics".   In the meteorite 
hobby, ethics extends beyond "which country allows or doesn't allow meteorite 
export".  When someone is potentially breaking a law then it is legitimate 
discussion--especially when they are so in your face about it and freely posts 
the details to the list.  When someone is posting what most might believe to be 
personal details (e.g. TMI )then it is also fodder for list discussion when it 
raises the specter of fraud or abuse.  Under that license, I addressed a 
questionable activity to ensure that ethics were in fact being adhered to.  
Seems the enablers don't care truly care about ethics-- just situational ethics 
and protecting their diseased cows at the risk and expense other cow herders.   


None of us wants Steve to "inadvertantly" violate any laws--especially any that 
would bring discredit to the hobby. I think he was fairly notified that someone 
IS looking over his shoulder just in case.  This is a good thing as Martha 
might 
have said during her stint up river.

Re: [meteorite-list] tatahouine

2011-04-02 Thread Jason Utas
Elton, A few things,

1) This issue is essentially identical to a similar situation from
about a year ago in which a list-member publicly 'called out' another
member on supposed illegal things they'd done.  Regardless of the
court's verdict, the person who publicly posted the libel (yes,
"libel," because Chicago Steve has not been determined to be guilty of
anything) was banned from the list.  In my opinion, you deserve the
same treatment.

You are publicly accusing Steve of illegal and potentially damaging
things without a shred of proof.

That is libel, and this list should not serve as a means for your
illegal dissemination of unfounded, damaging accusations.

If this list is 'fair,' you should be banned.

2) The issue that you have brought to light in no way has any bearing
on Steve's dealings in meteorites.  I know for a fact that taxes are
not paid on many dealer and collector transactions because both cash
and rocks trade hands undeclared.  Since I don't see you decrying such
actions as defrauding the government, and since the money saved in
such transactions goes back into the dealers' pockets and is converted
into new inventory, I can only assume that you're singling out Steve
here again, just like good ole' times, because you've got the same
cactus lodged up your backside.  I don't know how or why you've got
such a beef with Steve, but I'm going to have to implore you, just as
I did years ago, to TAKE IT OFF LIST.

And if you've got a problem with Eric's email list -- I've got a yahoo
email account, too -- you can easily block his email address or mark
all of his incoming messages as spam with LITERALLY TWO CLICKS OF A
MOUSE.  Since you haven't done that, just as you have chosen not to
block Steve (and have instead opted to publicly attack him...yet
again), I can only assume, as I did before, that you enjoy berating
people in public merely for the amusement of it.

Given your colorful and patchy history on this list due to prior list
infractions, I have no reason to believe otherwise.

Best,
Jason

Lets let Steve speak for himself, Shall we?  

(Why do all these enablers keep complaining about taking things off list --then 
insure their diatribes are  posted onlist?)  Liberals, politicians in general, 
and crooks always seem to exempt themselves from the rules they demand others 
follow.  Why are you making a "personal attack"against me on-list when you 
preach about it being a list violation?  Didn't you have a recent diatribe 
about 
ethics?  Where are your ethics?

I've addressed why I thought my post was list business twice now and I will not 
justify it again--especially to you.  So please take your misguided, 
misinformed, parental conflict, ignorance of the facts, situation and complain 
to someone else.  And Jason, my "widdle antagonist", Your mouth seems to have 
certain echo quality --like it was coming out of  your loins. Have you thought 
about  having it surgically repositioned?--  You've no fracking idea what my  
email settings are just who is engaging in idle speculation?

There are several members of the meteorite community who know specifically what 
unethical / illegal activities I am talking about, I don't remember you 
stepping 
forward at the time.  So once again you haven't a clue and I tire of the 
magical 
trick you keep putting in my face where you pull a smelly bouquet out of a body 
orifice and call it "righteous indignation".  


Jason I don't see your name listed on any of the notarized documents  and so 
far 
as I can tell you aren't entitled to view them either.  As you've made amply 
clear, you have deep abiding tiff with me which won't die so you look for every 
opportunity to grind your ax.  I have a beef with Steve's ethics but at least I 
have a reason which I state EVERYTIME I have cause to bring it up.   This is 
sorta my way of saying talk to the hand.

So put your effort where your mouth is and if you feel compelled to "chastise 
me" or lie about me-- follow your own demands and write me off list.  I do not 
just now have your emails set to automatically get File 13ed.

Re: [meteorite-list] tatahouine

2011-04-02 Thread Jason Utas
Hello Carl, All,
Same format -

1) I am not the police.  When I see someone say something that I
perceive to be untrue, I say something about it.  When I see someone
saying something unduly mean and/or possibly incriminating --
especially if they have no evidence to back their comments up -- I'll
say something about it.

That's what any decent person would do.

2) With regards to Bill Sajkowitz, I have not stated what you claim I
have.  I surmised that his finds were highly suspect, and, after
talking with some other local hunters who have spoken with him, I
personally believe that his claims of finding what he has are not
based in fact.

That is not to say that I have any *good evidence* to support my beliefs.

But -- when I hear stories about people who appear out of nowhere and
submit multiple new, large, and extremely rare meteorites that they
claim to have found, and then refuse to show *anyone* a single one of
their finds -- I tend to believe that the stories aren't true.  If
someone makes a crazy claim, I expect to see some evidence supporting
it.  If the person making the claims has repeatedly refused to do even
that, I begin to wonder...

That is all I'm willing to say on the matter; outright accusing anyone
of fraud at this point would again be akin to libel.  Sajkowitz could
be the luckiest meteorite hunter in the world.  It's possible.  All I
can say is that I personally doubt that because I'm a rational person.
 Believe what you will.

3) Elton does not "keep things real."  He has made a number of
informative posts over the years, but whenever Steve Arnold of Chicago
comes up, he goes off the deep end.  What if Steve is using money his
wife has earned to buy meteorites?  What if he's using money from
sales?  What if he has a little money saved up from his job and he's
buying meteorites with that?  Unless Elton can prove that none of
these possibilities is true, he *needs* to stop accusing Steve of
illicit crap, because what he is saying is legally libel, and I have
the feeling the only reason he keeps saying the same crap is because
he likes taking out his pent-up emotional crap on Steve -- and because
he knows he can get away with it.

Furthermore, you completely disregarded my note about how most dealers
and collectors avoid paying taxes on many transactions because many
purchases are simply never declared.  Unless we're talking about
getting the IMCA to enforce such things, bringing up this sort of
federal/state financial rubbish is just crap.
It's like trying to plaster a politician you don't like with something
-- when you know they're all guilty of the same things anyways.

If Steve has cheated people in our community, that is an issue that
they should take up with the IMCA, and if they wish to make public
comments regarding his integrity to the list, detailing the situation,
that is up to them.

I've heard of countless underhanded things that prominent list-members
have done over the years, and I'm not saying anything about them.
Why?  It's not my place to bring other peoples' issues to light.  If
they want to do that, it's on them.  Not you, Elton, or I.  Secondhand
information becomes third, becomes hearsay.  It all becomes rumors and
lies.

Elton's making unrelated accusations without proof, and with what
appears to be pure malice as a motivator.  That passes in politics,
but I'd like to think we meteorite-folk can at least pretend to have
higher standards.

You're the one making accusations, Elton.  You're the one who needs
the notarized documents.  It's not "guilty until proven innocent," at
least where I'm from.

As such, it's all still just libel.  If you read my last post, I
already covered the issues glanced at in your spectacularly insulting
post.

You're not Mr. Policeman, same as me.  If others have had issues with
Steve in the past, it's their job to bring them to light.  All you
keep saying is "he has defrauded nameless others."

I'm sorry, but that doesn't count as evidence, and since none of those
people are willing to share, you're just parading an empty flag.

Your last email makes you sound borderline insane.  If your first post
didn't get you banned, this one should.  I have nothing else to say.

Steve,  If you were to ask, I am sure some folks here on the list would "rent"
you some  meteorites-- Netflix-style-- you can swap out every 2 weeks and save
all the

hassle of buying high and selling low.

However I need to ask: are you using your unemployment check again to buy
meteorites? We both know the  Illinois Department of Labor doesn't look kindly
on using

unemployment funds to purchase inventory for  business-activity--and they
consider buying and selling

business-activity whether declared or not.  In fact one isn't eligible for
unemployment if they run their own business, and if it is an unlicensed
business.  That gets into the fraud arenaagain.

One may not own/operate a "business" while drawing unemployment
compensation--and...well you already know that don't you? You may not be earning

"wages" but you aren't unemployed, if you are buying and selling.  Some folks
have

the  the IDOL Fraud Hotline on speed dial. The messages you post on the internet

are  evidence that you engage in buying and selling during times of
unemployment.

I don't know the penalty of a conviction on this but is it really worth the risk

and given everything else you say is on your plate do you really want to take
groceries money to spend $350-600 for something you will eventually sell for
$70-80 out of desperation.

[meteorite-list] New Park Forest House Smasher

2011-04-02 Thread bill kies

Please excuse me if this posts twice. I can't remember if the first post was in 
plain text.
 
Hi All,
 
I just got a call on a previously unreported PF house smasher. The owner says 
it weighs "around 2 or 3 pounds". Although I haven't looked at it yet, he says 
It came through his roof the night of the fall so I'm pretty sure it's genuine. 
I've never purchased a rock of that size and importance. 
 
My question to the collective is, what should I pay for it? I want to make a 
profit of course but I also want to be fair. 
 
Thanks,
Bill

It is hard to pick real news out of most of the endless chatter on the list. It 
was found, mentioned some years ago and ignored like most actual meteorites on 
here. For real discussion it seems most here want some controversy or other 
idiotic crap in order to actually discuss it.

Re: [meteorite-list] New Park Forest House Smasher

2011-04-02 Thread Greg Hupe

Hello Bill,

My advice would be to question this 8-year old party 'crasher' to the hilt. 
With all of the news coverage at the time quoting 'thousands' of dollars 
being made by locals, don't you think this house would have been known about 
at the time?! There was a show recently that was broadcast last year also 
about 'Accidental Fortunes" or something like that. It included the story of 
the Park Forest fall and people making up to $500,000.00 (combined quote) 
from the fall in their neighborhood.


I smell an opportunist at work here!! I wish you the best with what "I" 
would consider a suspect stone at best!


Best Regards,
Greg

I highly doubt this would show up so much later. Would have to be well 
documented and park forest very easy to recognize. I also doubt they would have 
kept quiet with all the media hubbub after the fall. This one stinks to me.

Bill,
According to a post by Martin back in April 24, 2010 under subject; Wisconsin 
fireball Meteorite fall.  it is  $15.00- $25.00 per gram with 40 people selling 
it . today probably less.  
No data given for a 2-3 pounder. It is my understanding that it would be worth 
less per gram the larger the size though. Supposedly Tatauine is the only 
exception to that rule. I know. Not much help.

[meteorite-list] New Park Forest House Smasher

2011-04-02 Thread Bernd V. Pauli
Hello Carl, Bill, and List,

"it would be worth less per gram the larger the size though"

I beg to differ ... at least in this specific case!

Just try to find any Park Forest meteorites for sale right now (of course, I 
don't
know if there are any private or anonymous sellers) from our well-known, 
reliable
sources, it's nearly impossible to find any offered online.

The "unreported" new house smasher is a different affair. It has a weird smell 
to it.
Such a hefty specimen would probably have made it into the media a long time ago
already.

But: a typical Park Forest individual will probably have certain tell-tale 
characteristics
that "Park Forest Experts" like Steve Witt, John Sinclair, Paul Sipiera, Steve 
Arnold,
Geoff Notkin et al. will readily recognize!

Around "2 or 3 pounds" sounds like that could be the 1006 gr Kolkebeck specimen 
(?)
which landed in the rain gutter (See: Meteorite, Aug 2003,Vol. 9, No.3, pp.  
08-14).

Best wishes,

Bernd

pieces with natural holes

[meteorite-list] ??????

2011-04-02 Thread Richard Montgomery
I must say, the squabble is disappointing.  And, as a newcomer to this 
highly respected METEORITE discussion forum, I wonder what the squabble is 
intended to achieve.  More than once, in the small two years of me being 
honored to participate here, I've written some words intended to allow some 
re-focus away from the crap, back to why we are all engaged here.  Ususally, 
the banter and squabble eventually dies away, but come-on gang.


Hey, List, here's a toast to the METEORITE fun instead!

Re: [meteorite-list] [OT]Micrphotographs ???

2011-04-02 Thread John Lutzon


Richard and All,

Here, here to that. However, i started my toasting earlier, without you.

I recently came upon a microphotograph (slide) of Ernst Chladnis (by J. G. 
Bradbury) and would like to know if there are any similarities to a 
"regular" thin section. And, how are they made?
This may not be a meteorite question--but it sure beats the previous 
nonsense.


Thanks.
John
