Sorry you feel I need to apologize to somebody who doesn't follow the rules. I
think you have it backwards. In my opinion, it is disrespectful to those who do
follow the rules not wanting to lose our advertising privileges.
For those who live in the United States, I am sure you are tired of al
Hello,
You are referring to the statement I made, and I reread it and I see
that I was not clear.
Many years ago, there was not an AD Ban or a 1 Ad a week rule, this
was before your time on the list. In those days, a huge amount of ads
coincided with a multitude of diverse meteorite topic
Hi List,
"THE BEST TOPICS. THE BEST CONVERSTION ON METEORITES COINCIDED WITH
THE MOST ADS."
I respectfully disagree here. I've seen perfectly good questions
about meteoritics posted in the past, only to hear crickets and see
tumbleweeds in response. More often than not, the preponderance of

Mike,
Your point is moot.
Mike Cottingham is not a member of the IMCA.
Neither is Steve Arnold (Chicago) and Bill Kies.
The Membership List is published on the IMCA website, and regularly
updated. You might want to look at it:

It's probably a poor analogy, but here goes :
If someone wins the Miss America crown, they are expected to behave a
certain way in public because that behavior reflects upon the Miss
America institution. The same can be said for many organizations
whose members interact with the public - they mus

Mike, I don't understand what point you're trying to make here.
IMCA is IMCA, MetList is an open email forum (very lightly) moderated by
Art. They are not in any way related, other than the obvious fact that
the community is small, many IMCA members are list members, and vice versa.

I buy my meteorites from trusted associates I have known for years and

If you recall, Art took a poll about this very subject and the vast majority
of the List members stated that anything more than one ad per week was
excessive. Art then posted the one ad per week rule to the List. It seems
