Lets not cloud the issue here with facts. We have to keep these nonsense 
arguments going
full steam ahead.That's what meteorite list was intended for is all about %95 
of the time.

The (SciFi)?? SYFY?? channel will turn this into another dazzling special

rerun it for many years to come while leaving all the other networks scratching

Years ago I got a lot of questionable looks concerning my sanity when I brought 
up
the idea of meteorites being "the Johny Appleseed of of life on Earth" to
members of my astronomy club.
Needless to say it resulted in many,many comments of out rage.
They reminded me of how it must have felt to be among the first
to refute the idea that Earth was the center of the Universe.
Lucky for me my kind of thinking came in 20th century, back then they still 
burnt 
people at the stake for being possessed by satin.

Micheal, 
That is an excellent point that has always baffled me and I could never 
understand the thinking 
 of any religion in this world. All the different Gods worshiped world wide 
have always been considered a male.
Which brings up the problem, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg."
I think all these religions could be easier to swallow if their God was a 
female.
That would answer the question, she "God" was a female carrying the first egg 
that resulted
 in the birth of the universe.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites Reveal Another Way to Make Life's Components

2012-03-11 Thread Dick Lipke
I apologize for for unconsciously grouping all religions into the same kind
of thinking and beliefs. There are probably as many different religions as
there are stars.

I stopped following any religious beliefs when I was about 8 or 9 years old 
when all my 
questions regarding all the tragedies happening around me or around the world  
always managed to end up with the answer " well God works in mysterious ways".
Even at that age I could sense a fear in their voices to avoid giving me a 
answer
that could offend their God.
This got way off the path of meteorites. This subject is over and done with.
Thanks everyone one for their opinions.

I was looking for some desktop back ground with meteors, meteorites and 
astronomy in mind when I found this 
painting from the early 1700's on Wikipedia.
Let your imagination run and soar into the heavens and beyond.

Thanks Larry,

I've been into UFOs from about age 8 or 9. 
Sad thing is even though I have always firmly believed in the highly
advanced visiting and exploring astronauts,ancient or other wise,I have
come to accept the idea that most likely I will never in my short remaining
life time actually be able to see the beyond all doubt evidence come to light. 
I hope I'm wrong.

Re: [meteorite-list] Steve Curry in trouble with CO State Attorney General

2012-04-23 Thread Dick Lipke
After all these years of being warned by many,many meteorite collectors and 
sellers of
of his fraudulent claims and attempted sales, this guy just didn't have enough 
sense to 
stop before it was to late. He became addicted like a drug addict is to heron. 
It seems he just couldn't stop once he got started. To embarrassed to admit he 
was wrong.
Makes me wonder if he actually may be happy and thankful it's finally over.

Re: [meteorite-list] It's a zepplin, not a blimp!

2012-05-04 Thread Dick Lipke
Yes Phil you are indeed correct. A blimp describes people with a lot of excess 
weight like Rush Limbaugh, witch can't get off the ground.
Where as a dirigible weighs much more less, even with passengers.
You have used common sense in catching this error.

Re: [meteorite-list] another crazy ebay sale

2012-08-21 Thread Dick Lipke
For give me for correcting you,BUT, this is expected and has become almost 
acceptable on e-Bay for sometime now.
What would be "CRAZY" though is someone actually secretly buying one of these 
gems at such a bargain price.
Of course if it was done secretly no one would have ever known. Guess it would 
be best to keep something like 
that a secret anyway.Wouldn't want everyone to find out how gullible you really 
are.Endless e-mails and telephone would never stop ringing.
