[meteorite-list] AD: armored chondrules

2005-01-27 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hey List, I sanded my SAU 001 down a little further and it is chocked full
of armored chondrules, I counted eight in the 3/4  1 1/4 inch window, I
think that qualifies as a lot! : )  I put it on ebay to see how it will do.

Re: [meteorite-list] Does this NWA look familiar to anyone?

2005-01-27 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
"If this dealer screwed you by omission you have ever right to beef, not
much recourse other than that though. I just wonder why he advertised it as
unclassified and sent it with an NWA 869 label. Maybe he is confused but I
doubt it."

Maybe he bought it as 869 but did think it was when he got it and did not
want to sell it as 869 if he doubted it. It is either keep it, through it
away, or sell it as an unclassified piece. I would, but I would have
explained the situation!
  I have bought unclassified stuff from big dealers that every one says is
869.  Would you have a problem if you bought an unclassified and it turned
out to be lunar?  : )

Hey list, NWA 788 is one of my favorites and I have a 53.4g 96% crusted
individual for sale or trade, it is a nice one!  I like to trade but will
sell it for a reasonable price!

2005-01-26 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hi Jerry and list, I hope you have not sent out the check yet, I only take
paypal! I gave it some thought and don't think it would be fair to the other
list members if I sold them all to one member so there is a 5 gram limit.
Also I am dropping the price to $5 a gram so everyone can afford a piece!
So just go to http://www.paypal.com/ and send 5 a gram to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to purchase yours. : )  time is everything here,
so get to it!

[meteorite-list] Armored Chondrule pic

2005-01-25 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hello List, someone suggested a pic of this possible rectangular armored
chondrule, so here are two!

This pic show the chondrule in question at the very top center of the
picture and also a round armored chondrule in the middle.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0584.jpg

This pic is more just of the rectangular thing. : )

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0579.jpg

So, is it a rectangular armored chondrule?

[meteorite-list] weather effects on metal?

2005-01-25 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hi list, I need your help! : )  I have a great %70 crusted SAU 001
individual. Well I made a window on the %30 part and it is so nice! There is
some real nice small flakes of metal, but there is also what looks to be
metal, but without the metal shine, just a dull metallic look. It also
surrounds a chondrule or two, like an armored chondrule, but is this metal
or not? Does metal weather into this, or is it something else?
  If it is metal, and these are armored chondrules, this one does have
something pretty neat. There is a rectangular inclusion (?) that has the
same appearance as the chondrules, same color, looks like the same stuff,
just rectangular but it is also armored, a rectangular armored chondrule,
how neat is that? : )

Re: [meteorite-list] Magnetic meteorites

2005-01-19 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Thanks John, I like to use the word magnetic for describing a meteorite only
because I type about one word a minute and I don't think someone should have
to say "it is attracted to a magnet" it just takes to long. We all know what
is meant when a list member says magnetic. Magnetic, magnetic magnetic, see
no one died from reading the word so we should let this topic rest forever!

[meteorite-list] They have to go!

2005-01-19 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hello List, I am going to part with the rest of my collection. I still love
meteorites and am keeping the sentimental meteorites, but I want to cut my
collection down to only the sentimental ones that I will never part with!
I would rather sell them all together or maybe even trade for one nice
individual.  If you like some, maybe you could sell the others.  These are
all nice and I can send pics if you are really interested.  I don't even
know where to begin  pricing them so you can make an offer (trade or sale)
and if it's fair, great! I really do not feel like spending the money to
list them all on ebay so I am hoping I can do it on the list. : )  Thanks!

>From my mini collection;
1.7g 100% crusted SAU 001
4.7g Taza
2.4g 98% crusted Holbrook
2.4g 100%  crusted Gao
2.8g 95%  crusted Gao
2.1g 70% crusted Allende

Eric, I spent many years as a married man, just take the day off of work,
tell her your going to be working late and go!  That should give you time to

[meteorite-list] I need some excitement, trade?

2005-01-17 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hey list, life is getting extra boring here in little old Kingman, I need
some excitement and nothing excites me more than a trade, well that's not
completely true, but

It may be unclassified, but is it one of my nicer meteorites. You have seen
it before, but it is so much nicer in person! It is brecciaed with a light
gray fine matrix full of odd shaped inclusions and a white part that has a
rougher texture and has some actual chondrules. Before you say it looks like
NWA 869 you had better take a gander at it's crust, if it is NWA869 then it
has the nicest blackest and freshest crust ever to grace an 869!!!   It
weighs in at an even 33 grams but size is not every thing, this thing is
nicer than a lot of meteorites twice it's size!!!   : )  If you like it, I
can send bigger pics to you.

All I am looking for is a nice crusted complete individual that looks nice,
or an iron. : )

Re: [meteorite-list] Mars Rover Discovers A Potential Meteorite

2005-01-15 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hey List, Nininger said there should be ten meteorites on every square mile
of earth. The rate, I would think would be higher on mars, with a less dense
atmosphere. Without the weathering and such, I would think the meteorites
would stay in one place and survive a lot longer, so I would think the
rovers should be able to find them all over the place. But, what do I know?

Hello List, this meteorite is made of two parts, a gray part packed with
chondrules, and a white part that has a few chondrules, both have metal.
These are the best photos I can get for some reason, hard to tell, but maybe

Hi list, I am confused about this and would like to know the how and why's.
. This NWA has some inclusions (white and on top of photo), no big deal, but
they all seem to be lined up in a row, or at least all on the same side of
the meteorite. How would this happen?

Hey list, did you know that some members choose to not receive emails from
the list but just check the archives?  That might be the answer to people
who do not want to get so many emails in their box or for those who have
deletekeyphobia! You can still send posts, you just will not receive them,
there are other options to, check your account page. : )

Re: [meteorite-list] A Call For A New Meteorite List

2005-01-05 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
John, Jim and everyone else, I have nothing but respect and admiration for
everyone on here, but;
Personally, I do not have one problem with the list as it is, I think it is
great!  It seems like the problem is with the people who refuse to use the
delete key, it does not bite!  I opened my email this morning and had forty
emails from the list, I glanced at one from each topic and if it did not
interest me, I deleted the rest with the same topic and guess what, it did
not even hurt me little finger! This is a great list and what makes it so
great is the fact that there are human beings on here and we are all
different! It might be nice if Art would do something during the wars, but
they are all part of what makes this list great! We don't want everyone
thinking that everyone gets along all the time!
 My suggestion is to leave the list the way it is and learn to use the
delete key.

[meteorite-list] OT; What next!

2005-01-04 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
As most of you know, my life sucks right now. I drive a 1980 ford van that
has seen better days.  After the divorce, my first wife's dad gave my second
soon to be ex wife a 1998 or so Astro van because she needed a car too. Yes
my first wife's wife's dad, not her dad. My oldest daughters grandfather. go
figure.
  Today my ex called me, (we are still friends) and told me she is getting
re-married. I am happy for her, but it kind of rubs it in my face, my life
is going down hill and hers just keeps getting better. Just not a good time
to hear something like that. (We have been divorced for about a year now.)

Re: [meteorite-list] Great to be poor!

2005-01-03 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hi Bill,
"What is born poor?"

Being born poor is just that, I was born into a poor ($) family, food stamps
and midi-care, your typical welfare family.

"You have a PC and I assume you aren't illegally connected to a power source
in an alley living in a box."

"You have a PC", no, my daughter has a PC thanks to her grand parents on her
moms side, and she is sweet enough to let me use it.

"I assume you aren't illegally connected to a power source in an alley
living in a box."

Don't assume, I live in a mobile home, as close as you can get to a card
board box, only one step above!  And for the power, by sheer grace of God!!!

" There isn't enough money in the world to fuel the budget of an obsessed
collector."

Boy, isn't that the truth : )

What is born poor? Is that like born free only without the free? There isn't
enough money in the world to fuel the budget of an obsessed collector.

Hello List,
I was going to put this on e-bay for the fun of it, but I thought I would
offer it to the list first.  I have a March 2001 copy of Astronomy Magazine
that has a five page article about the Portales Valley fall.  It talks about
Mike Farmer and others.  I would prefer to trade for a meteorite, I have to
do something to add to my collection.  : )   A must have for all meteorite
libraries.

Re: [meteorite-list] shipping

2004-12-31 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
I don't get ebay, one well known over seas seller has a $25 shipping fee,
that's fine, but if another seller sells an identical meteorite at the same
starting price, but with $2 shipping, form what I have seen, the meteorites
will sell for the same amount lets say $15 in the end, even though they have
to pay $23 more in shipping, do they just not care what the shipping charges
are?

Fredric, Welcome to the active side (posting) of the list!  I heard there
are  laws to protect innocent people from lurkers, well maybe not list
lurkers, so never mind! : )
  I guess I would have to get rid of my collection to make me a real non
collector, so as long as I have one, I will always be. I have some
meteorites that are sentimental that I will always have. I guess if I ever
walk past a black rock with out taking a closer look, then I will know I no

[meteorite-list] The non collector

2004-12-28 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hello List,  Even though I no longer am an active meteorite collector, it
does not mean I have to be off the list, away from all my friends! I do not
know what I was thinking, I guess I just think of the list as a part of
meteorite collecting. I still love meteorites, I just don't collect them,
for now. : )

Thanks, Tom

Re: [meteorite-list] As a matter of fact, I done!

2004-12-26 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hi Tom and list, the bickering does not bother me, I just don't read them.
: )  The list could use some bickering right now, at least there would be
something in my inbox! : )
  As for my collecting, it is just not a good time to be collecting
meteorites for me (not unusual). Trying to be a single dad (or mom) now days
is tough. All my money (and them some) goes towards raising my kid. I am
selling my meteorites to make ends meet. My collection is small to start
with and is hardly worth calling a collection anymore!  The bright side, I
don't have to display them, I don't have anything worth looking at! : )  So,
it is depressing to see so many nice meteorites for sale and can't even
consider trying to buy it, or wait, I can, my kid does not need to eat this
month, no wait, she does!  My dad responsibilities have to come way before
my collection.  So I need to focus my thoughts on my most important task
(for now) my kid.

Thanks, Tom

Hello List, I was about to list a 11.6g Allende half individual on ebay for
a little less than $4 a gram, but I would much rather see one of my friends

taking a loss on it!
  I will sell it for $45  + shipping how ever much it costs to send it. But,
you know me, I am always up for a trade!  I would like a nice crusted
individual or a nice thumb-printed SA, I just want something new for my

[meteorite-list] Did you find this meteorite?

2004-12-15 Thread Tom AKA James Knudson
Hello List,  I could never forget a meteorite I found, I am guessing you
can't either!  I am trying to track down the finder of this US stone.
  If you have any info, please call silent witness at 1-800 MISSING. OR
better yet, email me! : )   Next step is to put a pic on a milk carton!

Subject: [meteorite-list] "Meteorite man 2000"


I've only subscribed to this list for about a week now, so I don't know
anything about the history
of this list.  Has this weird, interesting, "way out there" crackpot site
been discussed before?

http://www.meteoriteman2000.com/index.html

I ran across it today when attempting to contact a bidder on Ebay (and give
him a tip-- he had a
zero feedback and I was trying to be helpful) and the e-mail address (which
bounced) had this site
as the domain.  The guy is bidding on multiple lots of NWA 869 stones (at
higher-than-needed prices,
which I was going to point out to him).  Since on his web site he is trying
to sell 2-4 gram pieces
of his "messenger stone" for $50 each, I'm thinking that he might want the
NWAs to try and sell as
pieces of his whatever the heck piece of junk that is.
