[meteorite-list] a bunch of competitors in Ensisheim
Hi Michael, Mike, Hans, Bruno, List, As I already notified Mike, by no means NOBODY will ever be kicked off from Ensisheim show. This is just impossible to even conceive as far as I and my co-organizing friends are concerned. Gathering as many people to share a common passion is the fundamental reason of the creation of our show. Michael is more than right: everybody (dealers included) would for sure profit of such a fair competition. I second that the japanese behavior is very strange. In less than 10 days from now, you will be almost 50 dealers to gather and be kept close to each other for the best pleasure of every visitor and most certainly of each of you. So please Mike, Hans, Bruno...be happy and smile. We all have fun to offer that certainly each of us is willing to take and share. As Micheal would say: the more people willing to share fun, the more fun is generated.. More Ensisheim news to come.

It has been well known in the gas business and in the shoe business, and many other businesses, that if another dealer opens right next to you or across from you at an intersection business actually INCREASES. Even more so, if a third dealer comes in. The theory is that buyers then think of that area as the place to get gas or shoes - or meteorites. However, some dealers still relate to other dealers as competition, and some, obviously, then go about doing whatever it takes - regardless of the cost to the other dealer, to eliminate them. I believe it is referred to as territorial. The irony is it doesn't really benefit the one(s) being territorial - Prof. Zelimir Gabelica Université de Haute Alsace ENSCMu, Lab. GSEC, 3, Rue A.

So it's allowed to bring meteorites there? I was bemused by Mike's report... - Original Message - From: Zelimir Gabelica [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Wednesday, June 08, 2005 2:46 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] a bunch of competitors in Ensisheim Hi Michael, Mike, Hans, Bruno, List, As I already notified Mike, by no means NOBODY will ever be kicked off from Ensisheim show.

Hi Zelimir and All, Yes, the more we will be the more fun we'll have, I'm sure! I'm already in the starting blocks and ready to drive to Alsace. See you there.
