Bob,
I rarely get involved in these rantings, but your post is an absurd,
unwarranted and petty piece of baiting. If *you* are so altruistic why
don't *you* choose to sell a few of your pieces and donate the proceeds
to good causes?
Sure Steve has made mistakes on this list, but his motives for this post
are far more well intentioned than yours. I have actually taken Steve up
on his offer as I teach Science, Physics and Astronomy to 11-18 year
olds. You say that 'Not much to be discovered from a few pieces of
Campo.' but you have clearly never witnessed the awe and wonder when the
most common of space rocks are placed in the hands of a young student.
It's invaluable and inspirational.
If you have personal issues with Steve, then keep them to yourself. It's
not appropriate to flame him over a post that is entirely fitting with
the intentions of most on this list to promote the study of, and
education about, meteorites.
I will not be dragged into a battle of words, so this is likely my only
comment on the matter.
Thank you for reading...
Matt.

How about this alternative? Sell em on ebay and give the money to some
poor widow who lost her husband in Irag.
I'll bet she could use the money to buy a few toys for the kids who
lost thier father.
Just a thought.
