Hi list As you may have seen, I have listed on eBay, all I have of meteorites..again ... you must be getting tiered of it :-) Course: I am leaving this hobby for good. Lots of things have happened in my life, and I have had all the support I could ever wish from the meteorite community. However, I am getting divorced, and starting a new life. I have to sort out my prioritys, and I have come to the conclution that I will go back to my "roots". I have had so many pleasures from this hobby that they owerwhelme the downtours, so it is with sadness that I leave. I wish all of you the very best of luck, and many new falls in the future.

Hi List This is highly off topic, but I just had to get the anger off my chest... As you may know Denmark is very unpopular at the moment in all the arab world, because a newspaper brought 12 cartoons of Muhamed. Today demonstants just burned down the Danish embasy in Damaskus in Syria. (the Sweedish and Chile embasy were in the same building and burned down too) I guess Danes are banned in the whole area for a long time...

Lars, I think You should first try something more easy, cheaper and more confortable in use. If You want only store Your pieces in safe place, not to show them, then try to buy a vacum container for food and put there colored silica gel. http://www.meteoryt.net/ebay/pudelko.jpg First You remove part of air that contain moisure using manual or electrical pump. The remaining part of air is dry up by silica gel. I think its very good method for everyon that live in moderate moisure regions. If someone live in "high risk" region, maybe he should invest in achondrites ? You can open container as many times You want.

If you don't want to take the time to figure out how to do it in Word or Works, you can always buy a stand alone program. For the last seven or eight years, I've been using some software called "My Business Cards" marketed by a company by the name of MySoftware Company. The program is so easy to use a kid can do it. It's nice to have all of your specimen cards the same size and laid out in the same format on the same color of card stock. Keep the cards you get from dealers and other collectors in a safe place, after all, they might be worth some money some day and you can always include them with a specimen when you sell or trade it.

Hello all First of all, it is nice to be back :-) Many things can happen in ones life, but still if one is realy realy interested in a subject, that interest will keep comming back. I happen to be very interested in meteorites, so I guess that I have got the bug. and I will be for ever trapped ... :-) However, what can change is ones financial situation. Therefore I have desided, that I want to make a 3 meteorite collection Silly.. ??? maybe. But realistic :-) What I want is a stone, maybe NWA 869, and a real good one like the one I sold (a 700 gram end piece, polished perfectly) I also want an iron - would love Sikhote, but will be too expensive - so I guess I will setle for a good size thumbprinted Campo.

[meteorite-list] my reason for leaving....
Hello I have had some respons on my leaving, so I have come to the conclusion that I will let all of you know why I leave. We allmost lost our daughter in a carcrash. and for some days we did not know if she was going to live or not. Luckily she will. And the doctors say tha there is a good chance that she will make a full recoveryin timelong time. As a consequent of that I will stay as much with her as I can, and take as much free from work as possible to be there for her when she need it. That cost money...alot of money. Therefore I sell my stonesand alot of other stuff. Hopefuly we can stay in our house. I think that will be best for all of us. So as I am sure you can imagine, sometimes my mood is high, and sometimes it is way way low. I do not hope it has been too obvious in my mails. Afterall this is my probleme not yours. So now you all knowit is a matter of priority and (for me) finding out what is realy important in my life. well enoughf of that . I have 2 stones left.. you can see them on the website...NWA801, and NWA1757 both fantastic specimens. If they are not sold today, they go on ebay. They must go. If someone paypal me 450 they go..

Their findings are certain to generate a renewed burst of speculation among scientists who study the history and evolution of life. Each period of abundant life and each mass extinction has itself covered at least a few million years -- and the trend of biodiversity has been rising steadily ever since the last mass extinction, when dinosaurs and millions of other life forms went extinct about 65 million years ago. The Berkeley researchers are physicists, not biologists or geologists or paleontologists, but they have analyzed the most exhaustive compendium of fossil records that exists -- data that cover the first and last known appearances of no fewer than 36,380 separate marine genera, including millions of species that once thrived in the world's seas, later virtually disappeared, and in many cases returned. Richard Muller and his graduate student, Robert Rohde, are publishing a report on their exhaustive study in the journal Nature today, and in interviews this week, the two men said they have been working on the surprising evidence for about four years. "We've tried everything we can think of to find an explanation for these weird cycles of biodiversity and extinction," Muller said, "and so far, we've failed." But the cycles are so clear that the evidence "simply jumps out of the data," said James Kirchner, a professor of earth and planetary sciences on the Berkeley campus who was not involved in the research but who has written a commentary on the report that is also appearing in Nature today. "Their discovery is exciting, it's unexpected and it's unexplained," Kirchner said. And it is certain, he added, to send other scientists in many disciplines seeking explanations for the strange cycles. "Everyone and his brother will be proposing an explanation -- and eventually, at least one or two will turn out to be right while all the others will be wrong." Muller and Rohde conceded that they have puzzled through every conceivable phenomenon in nature in search of an explanation: "We've had to think about solar system dynamics, about the causes of comet showers, about how the galaxy works, and how volcanoes work, but nothing explains what we've discovered," Muller said. The evidence of strange extinction cycles that first drew Rohde's attention emerged from an elaborate computer database he developed from the largest compendium of fossil data ever created. It was a 560-page list of marine organisms developed 14 years ago by the late J. John Sepkoski Jr., a famed paleobiologist at the University of Chicago who died at the age of 50 nearly five years ago. Sepkoski himself had suggested that marine life appeared to have its ups and downs in cycles every 26 million years, but to Rohde and Muller, the longer cycle is strikingly more evident, although they have also seen the suggestion of even longer cycles that seem to recur every 140 million years. Sepkoski's fossil record of marine life extends back for 540 million years to the time of the great "Cambrian Explosion," when almost all the ancestral forms of multicellular life emerged, and Muller and Rohde built on it for their computer version. Muller has long been known as an unconventional and imaginative physicist on the Berkeley campus and at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. It was he, for example, who suggested more than 20 years ago that an undiscovered faraway dwarf star -- which he named "Nemesis" -- was orbiting the sun and might have steered a huge asteroid into the collision with Earth that drove the dinosaurs to extinction. "I've given up on Nemesis," Muller said this week, "but then I thought there might be two stars somewhere out there, but I've given them both up now." He and Rohde have considered many other possible causes for the 62- million-year cycles, they said. Perhaps, they suggested, there's an unknown "Planet X" somewhere far out beyond the solar system that's disturbing the comets in the distant region called the Oort Cloud -- where they exist by the millions -- to the point that they shower the Earth and cause extinctions in regular cycles. Daniel Whitmire and John Matese of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette proposed that idea as a cause of m

Ramdohr (MPI Heidelberg) was cut using the "wire-cutting technique". Professor Paul Ramdohr used a four-millimeter-thick steel wire and carborundum powder (silicon carbide or SiC - silicon carbide is about as hard as diamond) as a lubricant. It took 188 hours to cut the first slice although the maximum width was only about 130 cm !!! Another interesting aside: About 8 or 9 slabs were cut from this mass, four of which (about 250 kg each) were donated to the Smithsonian Institution, the Academy of Science in Moscow, the British Museum in London, and the Australian Museum in Adelaide. When these slabs were handed over, the following representatives were present: a) Professor Paul Ramdohr b) Professor Wolfang Gentner c) British ambassador Nicholas Henderson d) Representative of the Soviet Embassy in Germany (Kaplin) e) US ambassador M.J.

Yes maybe it should be put into some kind of acrylic resin. Does anyone know what to use, and how to do it. It is a 530 gram full slice aprox. 21 x 17 centimeters. Just a thin layer ?

For me the unique method for save the pallasites from rusty is put this into a acrilic resin without air. Matteo --- Jörn Koblitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ha scritto: Hi List, back in the 1980s, I got a large, beautiful Admire slice. I kept it at low humidity and also added corrosion inhibitor to the bag in which the slice was wrapped in. During the first 10 years I checked for signs of rust from time to time. It was okay, no rust, very stable. So, I kept it alone (same storage conditions) until one year ago, when I look at it again. Well, the pallasite was in the state of disintegration, heavily rusted, olivines pressed out of the metal grid. What I want to say is, that even after so long time of stability, one can never be sure. I think, one has to check the state of such a known ruster more often. If any sign of rust, especially swallowing of olivine grains, one has to start corrective actions immediately (e.g. neutralization of acids, drying...). Rusting is a self-accelerating process, once it has started. If a meteorite is known as a ruster (like Brahin, Brenham, Admire), be very careful! I am presently developing a special method of treatment to remove all the salts (the source of the mess) from such corrosion sensitive irons and pallasite specimens. I hope, with such reatment, then these rusters are sufficiently stabilized for the time being. Jörn > -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- > Von: Martin Altmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Gesendet: Montag, 7.

Hello list I had a wonderfull day eysterday :-) I got thé most beautifull slice of a meteorite that I have ever seen - thanks Dean. It is a, still unclassified, CV3. can be seen on Deans website (and probably other places too) When I was studying it more closely, I got the thought that it migt be paired with NWA1807.they look very similar, bot on the inside and on the outside. Anyone have an oppinion on that ? The next is OT... but I just have to tell someone :-))) And later last night I was to a Country music show with Charlie McCoy. Charlie is an old friend, I have known him for may years. But last night he surprised me ! I was talking to one of the other artists from the show, Jett Williams. Then Charlie told me she was the daughter of Hank Williams thé greatest songwriter that have ever lived !!! WOW ..I was shaking hands and talking country music with Hank williams´s daughter ... It was a night (and day)I will never forget. Best Lars

[meteorite-list] Stones partly burried in the dessert sand
Hi All I have been thinking ;-) Why is it that it looks like the part of a meteorite that sticking out of the sand seems to be better preserved, than the part that is burried in the sand - and is protected from the weather. My logical sense (dont laugh :-) tells me that the part that is up in the air is constantly eroded by the sand blowing over it, and gently sandblasting it - but perhaps that is the secret ? Is dessert sand cemicaly agressive ? It is just something I noticed, and may not allways be the case ? Best wishes Lars Pedersen
