Thanks Doug,
Got to really dig into this paper to make sense of the conclusion which is only 
speculative and needs 
to be further evaluated for positive confirmation bias and field and lab work 
around the world.  It was 
quite top heavy on analysis which appears well done!

The authors, or maybe it was the press, used the study's 270 kg dissolved 
sample of well-characterized 
"chronostratigraphic" sediments from a Russian deposit in the study which got 
approved for publication 
in the prestigious journal, "Nature", if I read it correctly.  

It would have been more rigorous for my taste if it had been reviewed by MAPS 
editors, or the like, where the focus
 would have been more on interpretation, than on methodology.  Just my opinion, 
as both are important.  
It is an interesting subject - do we call it paleo-meteoritics? Getting any 
paper into Nature deserves congrats
for sure but I expected to be more awed from their editorial staff choices.  
Luckily no one told that to the Alvarez'.

In the end the conclusion is that ordinary chondrites used to be a 
significantly lower proportion of finds, nearly a 
half billion years ago according to the results of their study.  Then 466 mya 
that all changed with the disruption
of an L parent body.  I didn't notice special mention of H- or L-chondrites, so 
the assumption IMO is that that another
event happened recently.  None of this seems remarkably insightful but perhaps 
the authors point of view is 
that here's a smattering of evidence that confirms the idea that the ratios of 
meteorite classes will vary throughout 
geological ages which is nice when things make sense and people begin to 
dimension it with the 'fossil' record.

Kindest wishes
Doug

Hi Doug,

Here is a link to the original paper:

http://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-016-0035

"Our data show that the meteorite flux has varied over geological time as 
asteroid disruptions create new fragment populations that then slowly fade away 
from collisional and dynamical evolution. The current flux favours disruption 
events that are larger, younger and/or highly efficient at delivering material 
to Earth."

AS I understod it, Doug they did an isotope /element count(?) of a breccia 
known as the Buttermere Formation believing it to be composed of bombarded 
Earth Rock. I didn't catch that the age was Ordovician but I might have missed 
that. I do not know the time span nor if their are any other contemporaneous 
exposures that show a similar collection of apparently extraterrestrial 
material.  I only scanned the article quickly but did look up the formation--it 
is near the Wales England border.  Be it remembered that all of the UK isles 
are a hodgepodge of sutured pieces of rocks terranes covering recent to very 
ancient.  Buttermere's original plate is long gone.

I've done a lot of work in Ordovician rocks and haven't seen any sign.  I have 
run into 4 sites in  Carboniferous material that I am fairly sure were fossil 
meteorites.  Once, I found a series of nodule cavities on a ripple marked 
sandstone boulder which I took photos of but, when I returned with a diamond 
saw to retrieve them the boulder had been moved to the crusher.

Ordovician meteorite hunters must have been brachiopods (Team Brachinite).

In other words, are the ordinary chondrites just less common 467 mya making

In “Possible meteorite found in Newport, Arkansas Area”,

McCartney Taylor wrote,

“The reporter confirmed that the confirmation of a meteorwrong 
won't make the paper.”

Unfortunately, this is typical of newspapers in general. Newspapers 
love to write articles about some spectacular claim of either some 
discovery or finding. Then, when the claim is discredited as being 
completely wrong, the newspaper commonly ignores it because 
the truth of the matter is quite boring.

My favorite example is a reported by the now defunct “State Times,”
of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which reported on January 9, 1951, that 
the bones of a 11-foot Neanderthal Man was found in a gravel pit
in Sicily Island. The Baton Rouge “Morning Advocate” reported on 
January 9, 1951 that  a ”... gravel contractor unearthed parts of a 
human skeleton 35 feet from the surface of the ground...” in a 
Sicily Island gravel pit . As documented in (Arata and Harmann, 
1966), these fossils were later examined by vertebrate 
paleontologists and found to be the bones of a Pleistocene bear.
Nothing appeared in either paper about this finding.

Therefore, a person has to be careful of reports of meteorite
finds and other spectacular discoveries reported in newspaper.

Hi Mike and Gang,

Facebook is quickly turning into a nexus of meteorite activity.
Collectors, dealers, hunters, scientists, and curious onlookers.
It's also ripe for virtual outreach.  I get questions almost every day
from people who know nothing about meteorites, and they are keen to
learn more.  I try to answer the majority of them.  Of course, there
are also more of the types who send messages like - here is my new
lunar meteorite that I found in Utah, what is it worth and do you want
to buy it? , and the message is accompanied by the obligatory
blurry-photo of a lump of hematite or a terrestrial conglomerate.
But all in all, it's a very good place to network and meet new
people who may later turn into collectors or hunters.  And from a
dealer standpoint, Facebook is now mandatory.  If you are a dealer,
and you do not have an active FB presence, then you are surely losing
potential sales.  Used correctly, FB can be a lucrative marketplace
and it charges zero fees.  :)

Best regards,

MikeG

Hello List

Here is the second part of the artical

Meteorite and meteoroid: New comprehensive definitions 

by 
Alan E. RUBIN1* and Jeffrey N. GROSSMAN2 

1Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics, University of California, Los 
Angeles, California 90095–1567, USA 
2U.S. Geological Survey, 954 National Center, Reston, Virginia 20192, USA 
*Corresponding author. E-mail: aerubin at ucla.edu 
(Received 05 May 2009; revision accepted 14 September 2009) 


There are more practical reasons that can be used
to select the best upper size cutoff for micrometeorites
and micrometeoroids. Meteorites have long been
recognized as rare, special kinds of rocks. The practice
of naming individual meteorites after the places where
they were found is based on this special status.
Generally, to receive a name, a meteorite must be well
classified and large enough to provide material for
curation and research. Much of the material that
forms meteorites in the inner solar system is relatively
coarse grained. Many chondrites and nearly all
achondrites and iron-rich meteorites have mineral grain
sizes that exceed 100 lm. Although in many cases it is
possible to classify small particles of meteoritic
material at least tentatively, this process is greatly
hindered when the particle size is significantly smaller
than the parental rock’s grain size. To allow for
proper classification, 2 mm is a more useful size cutoff
than 100 lm. In addition, the number of objects that
accrete to the Earth (and other bodies) varies
exponentially with the inverse of mass (e.g., Brown
1960, 1961; Huss 1990; Bland et al. 1996). Single
expeditions to recover micrometeorites have found
thousands of particles in the sub-millimeter size range
(Rochette et al. 2008), but very few that exceed 2 mm.
The 2 mm divide also seems to form an approximate
break between the smallest objects that have
historically been called meteorites and the largest
objects called micrometeorites. This leads to additional
refinements to our definitions:

Micrometeorites are meteorites smaller than 2 mm in
diameter; micrometeoroids are meteoroids smaller
than 2 mm in diameter; objects smaller than 10 lm
are dust particles.

By this definition, IDPs are particles smaller than
10 lm. We are not proposing a lower size limit for IDPs.
Before it impacted the Earth, object 2008 TC3 was
approximately 4 m across and was officially classified as
an asteroid (Jenniskens et al. 2009). It is likely that
when smaller interplanetary objects are observed
telescopically, they will also be called asteroids, even if
they are of sub-meter size. Thus, the boundary between
meteoroids and asteroids is soft and will only shrink
with improved observational capabilities. For the
minimum asteroid size. We thus differ from Beech and
Steel (1995) who suggested a 10 m cutoff between
meteoroids and asteroids.

The Relationship between Meteorites and Meteoroids
It is tempting to include in our definition of
meteorite a statement that meteorites originate as
meteoroids, which, using our modified definition are
natural solid objects moving in space, with a size less that
1 m, but larger than 10 lm; this was done in previous
definitions such as that of McSween (1987). However,
because the Hoba iron meteorite is larger than 1 m
across, it represents a fragment of an asteroid, not a
meteoroid, under our definition of meteoroid. If a mass
of iron 12 m in diameter deriving from an asteroidal
core were to be found on Earth or another celestial
body, it would almost certainly be called a meteorite,
despite the fact that it was too large to have originated
as a meteoroid even under the Beech and Steel (1995)
definition. In addition, the Canyon Diablo iron
meteorites associated with the Barringer (Meteor)
Crater in Arizona, are fragments of an impacting
asteroid that was several tens of meters in diameter
(e.g., Roddy et al. 1980); the Morokweng chondrite may
be a fragment of a kilometer-size asteroid that created
the 70 km Morokweng crater in South Africa (Maier
et al. 2006).

Comets, particularly Jupiter-family comets (JFCs),
could also produce meteorites. A small fraction of JFCs
evolve into near-Earth objects (Levison and Duncan
1997) and could impact main-belt asteroids at relatively
low velocities (approximately 5 km s)1) (Campins and
Swindle 1998). Meteorites could also be derived from
moons around planetary bodies. Lunar meteorites are
well known on Earth, and meteorites derived from
Phobos may impact Mars, especially after

There are more practical reasons that can be used
to select the best upper size cutoff for micrometeorites
and micrometeoroids. Meteorites have long been
recognized as rare, special kinds of rocks. The practice
of naming individual meteorites after the places where
they were found is based on this special status.
Generally, to receive a name, a meteorite must be well
classified and large enough to provide material for
curation and research. Much of the material that
forms meteorites in the inner solar system is relatively
coarse grained. Many chondrites and nearly all
achondrites and iron-rich meteorites have mineral grain
sizes that exceed 100 lm. Although in many cases it is
possible to classify small particles of meteoritic
material at least tentatively, this process is greatly
hindered when the particle size is significantly smaller
than the parental rock’s grain size. To allow for
proper classification, 2 mm is a more useful size cutoff
than 100 lm. In addition, the number of objects that
accrete to the Earth (and other bodies) varies
exponentially with the inverse of mass (e.g., Brown
1960, 1961; Huss 1990; Bland et al. 1996). Single
expeditions to recover micrometeorites have found
thousands of particles in the sub-millimeter size range
(Rochette et al. 2008), but very few that exceed 2 mm.
The 2 mm divide also seems to form an approximate
break between the smallest objects that have
historically been called meteorites and the largest
objects called micrometeorites. This leads to additional
refinements to our definitions:

Micrometeorites are meteorites smaller than 2 mm in
diameter; micrometeoroids are meteoroids smaller
than 2 mm in diameter; objects smaller than 10 lm
are dust particles.

By this definition, IDPs are particles smaller than
10 lm. We are not proposing a lower size limit for IDPs.
Before it impacted the Earth, object 2008 TC3 was
approximately 4 m across and was officially classified as
an asteroid (Jenniskens et al. 2009). It is likely that
when smaller interplanetary objects are observed
telescopically, they will also be called asteroids, even if
they are of sub-meter size. Thus, the boundary between
meteoroids and asteroids is soft and will only shrink
with improved observational capabilities. For the

Hi Mike:

These are good definitions for things on Earth (meteorites, etc.), but
once one talks about things in orbit around the Sun, this is in the
purview of the IAU and they already have (not so perfect) definitions for
small Solar System bodies.

As I said previously, I would be hard-pressed to call anything larger than
1 meter an asteroid.

Hi, Dan, Rob, List,

   The key weasel-word in that puzzle is infinite.
An infinite number of anything, no matter how
small, even neutrons, has infinite mass and hence 
exerts infinite gravitational force. 


   Your infinite stack of Earths will collapsr at the
speed of light, having wrapped all space and time
around itself. You are a string of particles stretched
out over light years, with the tip of your nose pressed
against the event horizon at the speed of light where
you feel infinite force, but you are not moving because 
time is standing still for you, and you will stay that 
way forever... in your inertial frame.


   The Newtonian solution is simple. Using the central 
force assumption of Newtonian gravitation (hey! works 
for me!), the gravity you feel is the sum of an infinite series:
1 + (1/3)^2 + (1/5)^2 + (1/7)^2 + (1/9)^2 + (1/11)^2 + 
(1/13)^2 + (1/15)^2 + (1/17)^2 + (1/19)^2 + ... =

1.208722 G's! (approximately, OK?)

   Your problem is that your Earths are too close together.
There is a cosmological solution that allows an infinite
static universe with infinite mass to have a finite and low 
mass density. They're called Charlier universes, but I

never met one. They're awfully empty...

   Experiment is the key to all knowledge. You stack up
an infinite number of Earths, then time falling objects 
with a pendulum, or even better, time the pendulum... 
right in the heart of downtown Gedankenland.

2009-08-26 Thread Dan Brumleve
Sterling,

The solution I had in mind is the Newtonian one (curiously the value
is related to the probability of a random integer being divisible by a
square).  But I don't agree that an infinite number of anything is
necessarily nonsensical...  In this case (an infinite line of planets
with one end), the force is finite everywhere and never much larger
than 1G.  (Alternatively, if we were on the edge of an infinite
half-space packed with planets, the force would be infinite and the
situation much less reasonable, essentially as you described.)

I had never heard of Charlier universes, looks like an applicable
framework, I will read more about it, thanks!

Paul:
 Welcome to the list.  I normally read quietly, posting something  
every few months when the urge strikes.  Everything you said is true,  
which makes this list one of my favorites.  However, in addition to  
the immense knowledge and profound statements as well as cutting edge  
research and terrific bargains, you will also find an occasional brawl  
resembling a sixth grade schoolyard fight.  I just wanted to give you  
a heads up on what some would call the  downside of this list, but  
which I find sociologically interesting.
Without this caveat it might be similar to finding out as a child that  
your parents weren't perfect, like the first time I saw my normally  
calm dad give some other motorist the finger.  Anyhow, I've been on  
this list for years, and unless I get kicked off for some reason (not  
very likely) I plan to be here for years to come.  I'm sure you'll  
learn a lot and be entertained as well.

Re: [meteorite-list] IMCA subject

2009-05-18 Thread Greg Catterton

... Ok. 
I would like to say for the record, I am a member of the IMCA.

Taking a step back and looking at the IMCA with a unbiased point of view, I see 
it as a group that has alot of potential and could be a great thing for the 
meteorite hobby.

I do think its more of a dealers club then anything, but I also see it 
working on educational and informative things such as the new Martian site 
(which is really nice!) and even took a big step in getting encyclopedia of 
meteorites site.

No group will ever be perfect or please everyone, but I think the IMCA is doing 
the best they can and are showing continued growth. That is important.

While there is no governing body for meteorites, the IMCA is doing the best 
they can to fill that role the best are able to.

I think more people should look at what the IMCA is doing rather then what they 
are not doing or what people think they should do and most would see that its 
really all in all a good group that has great goals.

 Martin and List,
 
 Well, I just received a veiled death threat from an IMCA
 member for my
 last post.
 
 I can say in all honesty, that I have done hundreds (if not
 over a
 thousand) deals since joining the world of
 meteorites.  Only once did
 someone attempt to scam me, and it was an IMCA member.
 
 IMCA credentials mean zero to me.
 
 Martin, you are one of the good guys and you know I respect
 you.  But
 there are bad apples in the IMCA just like any other large
 group.
 
 Now I am debating whether I am going to contact the
 authorities over
 this death threat I just received.
 
 I guess I better shut my mouth before the IMCA sends a thug
 to my house.
 
 Best regards,
 
 MikeG

  Please show me those auctions from IMCA-members, where
 fakes, not authentic

 authenticity) are offered.
  
  And then list me those auctions from non-IMCA-members,
 where fakes, non
  authentic and doubtful material is offered.
  
  IMCA was founded to make meteorite trades safer for
 all.
  The result of your comparision will be, I dare to
 foresee, quite convincing,
  that that IMCA-thing already could be called quite a
 success.
  
  I guess, if you'll search for Sideroli and nandan,
 meteori* +sphere
  and tibet +meteori* ect. you will directly obtain
 your first 20-50 fakes,
  ..to make it a little bit easier.
  
  Hmm those meteoritic carbonados currently en vogue,
 I just can found only
  2 offered. Together 50 k$. a nice sum to go
 shopping for real
  meteorites.
  
  To lazy (US-ebay is working so slowly on my computer
 since weeks?) to check
  how many tektites currently are offered there to the
 layman to have
  originated from the Moon...
  
  That's what IMCA mainly is about.
  
  And I'm so old, that I know the times before IMCA
 and how the situation
  was there, where everyone could sell any stone from
 his garden as meteorite,
  with the rookie, the laypeople, the unexperienced
 having zero possibility to
  know something about authenticity and having zero
 guidelines.
  Now his chances to be ripped off are definitely lower,
 when he looks for the
  IMCA-labels.
  
  (And I have by far less people to console in my
 practise, who bought crap as
  meteorites, than the years before).
  
  I for myself am astonished, how few complaints about
 alleged misdemeanour or
  fraud of IMCA-members reach IMCA.
  Remember IMCA is statuably obligated to proof each and
 every case reported.
  And in turn, if nobody complains, IMCA can't know the
 case.
  Remember that instrument is available for ALL, for
 non-members too, as long
  as the wrongdoing party is a member.
  Do you know any similar service in the meteoritic
 field?
  
  Hmm perhaps another, more empiric thought:
  Why do so many dealers, collector-dealers, collectors
 and those, who
  frequently or sporadically trade, sell, swap
 meteorites join IMCA,
  if that club is only a joke?
  Nobody urges them to do that, it's there free will and
 it even costs them 20
  bucks and makes their transactions more difficult, if
 they obey the code of
  ethics.

Well, speaking for myself, I'm working from primary data that I 
collected. And I don't work for the news or the government (hmmm... or 
am I just saying that? g) I know the details of the meteor path rather 
well. I can't guarantee that the NORAD elements for object 29679 are 
accurate, of course, but this object has attracted attention for the 
last week, so disguising the elements would be hard.

True, Chris, but with respect to the incident of a spectacular early morning 
light show over Denver you can rely on the codes programmed by experts and data 
on decaying satellites provided by NORAD. You can prove this for yourself, if 
you use the (openly available) codes on openly available two-line-element 
orbital data of satellites on the internet. NORAD won´t issue these for 
military US spy satellites, which are sort of classifieds, but will issue 
them for all the ten thousands of other near earth artifical satellites - 
including the decaying Russian booster rocket stage that we are talking about. 
And regarding the Classifieds - you can easily look them up at 
heavens-above.com whereever you live, no observable secrets at all - from the 
perspective of a groundbased artificial satellite observer using simple optical 
means that is :-)

 I'm not putting Dirk in that category because of his comment.) These
 guys are fully capable of believing that not only could NORAD completely
 fabricate any elements, but that all the amateur satellite watchers have
 been subverted as well, or that their numbers are changed by the Global
 Internet Control Computer at NSA. Of course, I've been subverted, too.
 You should see some of the email I get after a big fireball, when I
 publicly offer such a prosaic explanation as a random collision with a
 bit of space debris. If I wasn't under Mind Control, I'd be telling
 everyone the Truth, that Zetans are preparing to bombard the Earth with
 missiles prior to stealing all our women to host their alien spawn.

 Of course, I agree with you completely- the orbital elements can be
 taken with a very high degree of trust.

Hi, Chris, List, Zetans,

Not to be overly picky, but...

 Zetans are preparing to bombard the Earth
 with missiles prior to stealing all our women
 to host their alien spawn.

Shouldn't that be...?

 Zetans are preparing to bombard the Earth
 with missiles AFTER stealing all our women
 to host their alien spawn.

I believe there's a joke about Vikings whose
punchline illustrates this principle:
No, no, FIRST you rape, THEN  you pillage,
THEN you burn...

 Anyway, we aren't all dependent on trusting what the government or TV
 tell us!

True, Chris, but with respect to the incident of a spectacular early
morning light show over Denver you can rely on the codes programmed by
experts and data on decaying satellites provided by NORAD. You can prove
this for yourself, if you use the (openly available) codes on openly
available two-line-element orbital data of satellites on the internet.
NORAD won´t issue these for military US spy satellites, which are sort
of classifieds, but will issue them for all the ten thousands of other
near earth artifical satellites - including the decaying Russian booster
rocket stage that we are talking about. And regarding the Classifieds -
you can easily look them up at heavens-above.com whereever you live, no
observable secrets at all - from the perspective of a groundbased
artificial satellite observer using simple optical means that is :-)

Never saw a Lacrosse big spy bird on a clear, warm evening from your

Hi All,
Since the last survey of the list resulted in 26% of the members
responding that they considered themselves meteorite dealers, I post
this to the entire list:

I have received six or eight inquiries from NIGERIA - all different
individuals, asking weird questions about buying my products - such
as: Do I ship to Nigeria? Will I take a direct bank wire, etc. The first one
I tried to accommodate, but then received additional inquiries from
others in Nigeria. After that, I strongly suspected I was receiving
some sort of spam hustle (like the never ending posts, often in all
CAPS, about some widow from some obscure country who's dead
husband left her 26.8 million dollars and if I would just let her wire
it to my bank account she would happily give me 5% or the like). As
a result, I am no longer responding to any inquiries from Nigeria.
In any event, I wonder if others on this list who have commercial
web sites have been getting multiple enigmatic posts from Nigeria?
Best wishes, Michael

Hi Michael  List
I have received several of these myself. None of them mention the exact product 
that I sell or what they want to buy. They only mention that they are 
interested in the merchandise I sell. Also all ask if I take credit cards and 
if I can ship FedEx or DHL. I would guess this is so they have their 
merchandise before you figure out that the cc is stolen.
I stay as far away as I can from these scamsters and recommend that everyone

Of course they are scams!  I have been geting those literally every day for
YEARS.

Literally everyday I get spam email from these guys about buying your
products and do you ship to ... in addtion to the ones that begin I am

Also, scams to buy medicines.

Literally every day, several times a day.  Two already this morning.

There is nothing enigmatic about them.  They want your money.

It is hard to block them because they use stolen email  addresses and they
send sometimes with slightly different subject lines.

Below is one I got a few minutes ago.  Look familiar?

Hi to both Michael!

Yes it is true that many spam e-mails are coming from Nigeria, to propose
some wonderful looking deals, that 99.99% of the times are ways to get
information about you, your bank, your account number, letter heads and so
on... Some years ago, those highly suspect enquiries were sent by fax to
companies that are exporting to Africa including Nigeria; I received a lot
when I was an export salesman in a company making packaging machines, as I
was in charge of the sales in Africa. On their request, I reported some to
the French Embassy in Lagos, providing tel and fax numbers I had from the
messages received, and they were always leading to empty offices for rent,
where those thieves were sitting for few hours or days, just to try and
catch some fish.
So the best advise I have about those e-mails is to try and tune your
outlook express or whatever in order to refuse those messages, and to
delete straight away the ones passing through.

Re: [meteorite-list] New Subject - Nigeria

2005-04-20 Thread Walter Branch
Here is another that I just received a minute ago (sorry, the last one from
me):

-Walter

Dear sir/madam,

I must solicit your confidence in this transaction
this is by virtue of its nature as being utterly
confidential and top secret. Though a transaction of
this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and
worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well
at the end of the day. We have decided to contact you
due to the urgency of this transaction.But let me
first introduce myself. I am Mr  Patrick Harba,
Manager of
BillsExchange at the Foreign Remittance Department
of Zenith Bank of Nigeria,I came to know of you in my
search for a reliable and reputable person to help
handle this confidential transaction, which involves
the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign
account.

Detail: The President/Ceo of Mark Kogan Farm and
Engineering Drilling company Nig. Ltd, Mr. Mark Kogan
(CANADA) made a fixed deposit of USD14,000,000.00
(Fourteen Million United States Dollar) deposit  with
the Zenith Bank of Nigeria PLC five years ago. This
deal was to mature in April 2002. But Mr. Ramirez
Sanchez and his only son whom he used as next of kin
died in kenya air crash in the year 2000.Since we got
information about his death,we have been expected his
next of kin/relations to come over and claim his money
because our bank cannot release it unless somebody
applies for it as next of kin or relation to  Mr
Ramirez Sanchez the late depositor as indicated in
our banking guidelines.

Unfortunately none of his relation has come for
claim.It is therefore upon this discovery that i now
decided to make business with you and release the
money to you as the next of kin/relation to  Mr
Ramirez Sanchez for safety and subsequent disbursement
since nobody is coming for the money and i dont want
this money to go back into Federal Government account
as unclaimed fund.

The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that
if such money remains unclaimed,the money will be
transfered into the banking treasury as unclaimed
fund.The request for a foreigner as the next of
kin/relation in this business is occasioned by the
fact that Mr Ramirez SANCHEZ was a foriegner and a
Nigeria cannot stand  as a next of kin/relation to the
late
depositor who is a foreigner.Therefore i request you
to provide a reliable Bank account into which the
Zenith Bank of Nigeria Correspondent bank abroad will
pay the funds into.

Documents and proves to back you up in the receipt
of the funds into your account shall be carefully
worked out. We have also decided that for your
assistance you will be entitled to 30% of the funds
as your commission. 10% shall be set aside for
reimbursement to both parties for any incidental
expenses that may be incurred in the transaction.

If this proposal is acceptable to you, contact me
immediately through Email. Please furnish me with your
most confidential telephone and fax numbers,including
your full names and address,complete Bank information
so that they can be used for all your official
communications.

Thank you for your anticipated co-operation and God
Bless.

Mr Patrick Harba

Hi Michael and Martin! Prince Joe is hilarious! I love
the photo of him with the church's logo painted in
red paint on his portly chest. The only thing that the
prince would look better in that that red paint is a
black  white striped jump suit!

Thanks for sharing Martin!

Hi All,
   Since the last survey of the list resulted in 26% of the members
responding that they considered themselves meteorite dealers, I post
this to the entire list:
   I have received six or eight inquiries from NIGERIA - all different
individuals, asking weird questions about buying my products - such
as: Do I ship to Nigeria? Will I take a direct bank wire, etc. The first 
one
I tried to accommodate, but then received additional inquiries from
others in Nigeria. After that, I strongly suspected I was receiving
some sort of spam hustle (like the never ending posts, often in all
CAPS, about some widow from some obscure country who's dead
husband left her 26.8 million dollars and if I would just let her wire
it to my bank account she would happily give me 5% or the like). As
a result, I am no longer responding to any inquiries from Nigeria.
   In any event, I wonder if others on this list who have commercial
web sites have been getting multiple enigmatic posts from Nigeria?
   Best wishes, Michael

I think that if you simply write 

UNSUBSCRIBE

In the subject line, 

then write again

UNSUBSCRIBE

in the first line of the note sending it to:

it will happen automatically.

And you know what

I might just very well do the same if the bickering, and crap slingingdoes not stop. I've worn out my delete key finger, and my recovering brain cannot deal with these constant arguments over nothing.

  I just read a description that Mark Bostick had

  Is this where the trees were blow outward

  hell?
  
  Allusions have been made that it was a space ship 
  that "exploded" above Siberia. Supposedly, the same thing would have 
  happened at Roswell. The alien ship was in trouble...but in order to 
  correct descent or crash they would have to have gone into "hyperdrive". If 
  they had done that, they would have wiped out about a quarter of the southwest 
  from the blast. Instead, they opted to crash. Perhaps at Tungeska, they 
  did not opt to crash.. instead went into hyperdrive .. which left the damage 
  with no evidence ofcause. Perhaps in a more populated area around 
  Roswell, they made the decision to crash instead of making another 
  Tungeska... thus giving away their presence on this world.
  
  Just a thought...

Steve,
Would it not be easier to thank those that have purchased from you
personally, or is this another way that you have found to once again
continually spam us with reminders of your sale?

At least take the time to put AD in the subject line so we all know it is
another sale advertisement.
Though I have cable access and bandwidth is not an issue for me, there are
many that are not as fortunate.

Just something you might think about...

 Good evening list. I hope you all have a great weekend. I want to thank
 the people who have bought from me so far. I redid my forsale page, and
 added 3 new things. I also marked down everything to their 70% off. So the
 price you see, is the price you pay. As always, if you have something for
 trade, I'm always open. Especially for micro and macromounts!

 Yours are excellent suggestions and the sort of comments on this
 list that I
 look forward to reading.  Thanks so much for your suggestions.  I've
 polished opals and I've dealt with preservation issues with my pallasites,
 my Brenham 10 platter, my Mt Vernon, and unhappily, my Brahin, also a 10
 platter.  Opticon has been tried, as have thick epoxy coats, but alas, the
 rusting goes on beneath the veniere of epoxy.  I think your method might
 work, especially in conjunction with the vacuuming.  I've not worked with
 fracture sealers and am curious where sources might be for such a product.
 I'm already thinking that the old fashion dessication chambers with the
 vacuum valve at the tops, if one can be located, might be ideal for your
 vacuum method...   I'll go search the Internet for gemstone preservatives,
 but any sources would be appreciated.  Thanks for your time...

  Greetings list
 
  I'm seeing many questions about presurvation of meteorites and am
 wondering
  if what we do with opal and turquoise wouldn't help some. What we do is
  place the rocks in a container filled with (not to the top mind
 you, just
  enough to cover the stones) fracture sealer WITHout the
 hardener. This is
  then place in a vacumm chamber and evacuated til the sealer starts
  outgassing (bubbles and foams). At this point the valve on the
 chamber is
  closed and the setup is allowed to sit for a few hours to allow all the
 air
  and moisture to excape. When the valve is reopened and pressure
 allowed to
  return to room normal, the stone sucks in the sealer where once moisture
 and
  air was before. Then, remove the stones from the sealer and paint on
  hardener. The hardener seeps in where the sealer went and hardens it and
  thus we strenghen the stone and preserve it. On gemstones, this glossy
 outer
  covering is usually ground away in the formation of a gemstone for
 jewelry,
  but on a meteorite, it would also be removed from surfaces that were
  polished to show structure.
 
  Mark

 Please let me know. I now have a photo of it.

  Hi list. I'm still looking for people to trade fossils for meteorites. 
  The total value is around $400. Ido not care if I get just 1 meteorite for all 
  these. They are quality fossils, so no junk here. I AM A METEORITE COLLECTOR! 
  I have had some reply's, but nothing I can hang my hat on. Please let me know. 
  Ireally want to depart with these.
  
  p.s. I'll work with anyone on making a deal.

I asked her if she was an artist and expected some kind of  artistic reply, but she 
just said Nope...

Rob 

   I thought your story was interesting so I checked out the site.  When I read the 
following sentence and remembered her reply I burst out laughing.

She was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 1997.

  For those of you who don't know about the Turner Prize it is a huge media event 
where the British art elite show the world they have less of a concept of art than the 
average first grader.  I believe this years grand prize winner was an empty room where 
the light switched on and off.  At least her reply was honest! ;-))

What a clever idea.  I have just enough time before the Tucson Show to 
produce a few of these maps.  First I'll need to locate Farmer's house on a 
map..then Haag'sInnsuites...;-)

See you all there,

Hi folks,
I quite often receive emails and phone calls from people who are looking to
buy a one-off meteorite for reasons other than building up a collection. Some
of the proposed uses have been pretty weird and often unworkable, but the one
that sticks in my mind the most was about 3 years ago from a lady in England
you wanted to buy a meteoriteany kind of small meteorite that I can heat
up in a flame and use to burn through paper.
I had to find out more, so I asked her what her plans were. Apparently, she
wanted to take a map of London, heat up a small iron meteorite and place it
on the site of London's Millenium Dome. I asked her if she was an artist and
expected some kind of  artistic reply, but she just said Nope..I just
don't like the Millenium Dome and it's concept.
Oky!!! I made a small sale and that was the end of it I thought. Until I
saw this... http://www.multiplestore.org/docs/parker.html

It sounds crazy, but I notice that the limited edition has all sold out,
and if the price of the meteorite map on eBay is anything to go by, she's
done pretty well too.

Curiouser and curiouser!
