[meteorite-list] Anne

Hi List 
For those of you who have seen the new issue of Meteorite Time you may have 
noticed that Anne in her article about the Monnig papers on the Harriman 
meteorite that one note was in code only partly decoded. Here is the rest of 
that coded message.


. in Chattanooa and had turned the matter of recovering possession over to 
an attorney. How much luck do you think then will have. Fortunately I never did 
write _ones. Do you have any further instructions in the matter.


The spelling of Chattanooga was wrong in the coded message the cipher for g 
was missing in the word. Also, will is will not WE'LL as I think it should be. 
But, he had not editor in his coding writing. Also, I could not definitively 
determine the letter where the _ is, which seems to be a name. Because, c is 
used only once as a cipher and X, Z, and Q are all available and Caps can be 
more than one cipher it seems. Jones was my guess but I leave the answer to 
someone else. 

Thanks Anne it was a fun project.

Best regards, Jim Tobin

Thank you very much Jim.

I am glad you enjoy those articles, and found the time to decode that 
message.


I agree with you, I believe he means Jones, a friend of his in 
Chattanooga.


What I find surprising is how things have changed in less than 80 
years, particularly transportation and communication. Just imagine how 
the same problem would be handled nowadays.


Again thanks.

Barry, 
 
Thank you for having the courage of writing this apology.
And I most certainly accept it.
I would only ask one thing of you (and most everybody else on this List):
PLEASE
Don't believe everything you hear or read, double-check the facts, verify 
your sources. Believe me, it will make a huge difference.
Again, thank you.

I would most profoundly like to apologize to Anne Black...Anne, I 
apologize!!  I was way the hell out of line and the result of a misinformation 
accumulation 'in my mind' resulted in my forgetting that my actions could 
possibly 
cause bad feelings in a person I don't even know!!!The worse possible 
thing I can think of doing, I did.  I appreciate the courage of friends 
emailing to straighten me out without embarrassing me further.  I don't expect 
anything Anne..but your feeling better.  That's all I wish for...
The Very Best... Honestly and Apologetically...

2010-08-20 Thread Charley
Hi Martin,

Thank you for expressing so well what I beleive many of us (IMCA and 
non-IMCA members alike) feel about Anne and IMCA.

I have known Anne (via email and phone) for several years and feel we have 
become good friends. She has always been very helpful to me,
answering questions and connecting me with people that could offer 
assistance in a project I am researching. She and I (and Norbert Classen as 
well)
have had a number of email exchanges about meteorites and also non-meteorite 
related issues. When I happened to mention to Anne that I was going
to do a meteorite presentation at the local middle school, she immediately 
offerered to donate a book to the class!

For reasons unknown to me, the list occasionally sees someone go off about 
IMCA and how corrupt it is. I've been a member for several years and have 
never
seen any evidence of anything that was dishonest on the part of any IMCA 
board person or member. I have seen several occasions where people made 
accusations
against IMCA that are unfounded (and often shown to be unfounded by Anne) 
but , oddly enough, the accusers never apologize (at least publically) when 
shown that
their comments are simply not true .

I am proud to consider Anne  Norbert my friends and I am proud to be a 
member of  IMCA. If people choose not to join, that is their right.  They do 
not have the right
to slander or libel good people based on stories they are told off list.

Best regards,

 Carl,

 yes, probably you better shouldn't have pressed the send button.

 Neither you, Barry.

 Of course everyone is free to express his opinion,
 but the form it happened in, is not acceptable.

 Here you have the list archives:
 http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html

 There you will find not a single posting by Anne, where she would have
 insulted any person.
 And certainly Dr.Jambon feels not insulted by her.

 On contrary, in a silly brawl about possible pairings of stones, silly,
 because they still are in the totally normal process of classification -
 caused by the impatience of some list-members,
 she called on the list-members to do that, what one could expect from any
 mature meteorite collector,
 to demonstrate the patience necessary and to wait until the results of
 the analyses will be ready.
 And furthermore she got committed to exchange samples of the questioned
 stones, between the scientists involved in the classification processes,
 which in the end now seems to work, so that the matter can be solved by
 scientific criteria to the full satisfaction of all interested in that
 question.

 Ann Black has made of a chance for a legitimate

 I tell you Barry, what Anne has made.

 As co-founder of the IMCA she made the meteoritic world a safer place for
 everyone, also for you, introducing new standards into the meteorite
 trade, which got more and more widely accepted.
 And she created with IMCA a contact point for conflict resolution for
 participants in meteoritics
 and a place for advice in meteoritic questions and a source of
 information about meteorites.

 And that open to everyone and that free of charge for everyone.

 And like the other founders of IMCA, she did this in thousands of
 working-hours absolutely unpaid.


 That is certainly more, than to type an imprudent mail in the head of a
 moment - lock, stock and barrel condemning everything, what one even
 doesn't know,
 and to attack with inacceptable wordings a person, to whom the meteorite
 community owes respect and gratitude
 for that, what she has achieved for that community.

 Everyone is free to dislike and to criticize IMCA,
 but I think if that's done in public, one should try to stick to facts
 and should abstain from personal decrials.

 I'm sure, that when you'll have slept on it,
 you'll think similarly about that.

 Martin

That was very well stated, Charley! All of the people
on the IMCA board are very honorable persons, without 
any doubt, and I am glad I happen to know some of them 
in person. 

Hats off to that folks, who have done and do a lot for 
the collector and dealer community, in a most positive 
sense! No one should forget: they volunteer for that, 
and they are elected on a regular, annual basis, by
quite a lot of members, so there is absolutely nothing 
wrong about that, as some recent posts to the list
unfortunately may have suggested...

I think that Anne has a perfectly valid point.  Proud Tom really does not 
have a place on the met list.  At the very least, it violates one of the 
list rules - Be courteous and professional at all times.  The Proud Tom

At the same time, it does not make us look good.  Here we are worrying about 
the image of meteorite dealers because of fraudulent auctions of

Amen to the sentiments below.

I don't know who Proud Tom is - he is before my time, but these, as well as
other often personal attacks and offensive remarks do not serve the image of
the list, the collectors, the dealers or members at large very well at all.

These remarks belong off list where they can be shared by those who wish to
participate.

  Hi Anne,
 Of  course I will remove you from my friends page if
  That is what you truly wish.
 You say there is nothing wrong with your sense of humor,
  Yet you do not hesitate to severely criticize the humor of
  Others.
 I do not care one iota for the Three Stooges. However, I
  Accept that I am in the great minority and do not judge those
  Who enjoy such shenanigans, though it is completely beyond
  My comprehension. They poke one another in the eyes, hit one
  Another with hammers - they are a veritable concoction of hostility,
  Aggression and violence (though I have never said that before, but
  Just to give voice in the same way you do in your reaction to
  the roasting humor of Proud Tom)
 Do be aware that Proud Tom is also a part
  Of  The List and even the IMCA. Will you withdraw from
  Them as well? Many of your friends enjoy Proud Tom. Will
  You disown them, as well? Do you want to be off their
  List of friends?
 Throughout my life, whenever someone demanded that
  I choose between them and another friend, there is never a
  Question in my mind - they, themselves are choosing not to
  Be my friend. I always feel an attempt at blackmail is being
  Foisted upon me. So, tell me Anne, since the list consensus runs
  AT LEAST 10 to one in terms of enjoying Proud Tom, are you
  Going to disown all those friends? Or, are you saving that just
  For me? If so, why?
 Does your lack of appreciation dictate no one else can
  Enjoy the humor that does not strike your funny bone?
 Best wishes, Michael

  Michael,
 
  There is nothing wrong with my sense of humor, believe me, or ask my
  friends.
  But this is not humor, this is a thinly veiled excuse to insult people
  behind
  their backs, and it reflects poorly on the whole Meteorite Community.
 
  Please take it off-List.
  And please remove my picture from your Friends page. I will not be
  associated
  with this kind of buffoonery.

  The Proud Tom PDFs I sent around have

  With every one being roasted!
  Howsabout it, Big Guy? Won't you
  PLEASE respond to your countless fans and
  Give us some more Proud Tom buffoonery!
