[meteorite-list] List as bad as blog!

2005-05-27 Thread Tom Knudson
Hey list, the blog sucks because everyone hides behind fake names, I am
beginning to think  the list is getting there too!  I posted about a new
Nickel deposit and had a conversation with  Devon Slater that quickly
turned into an argument complete with insults.  Later today I checked the
blog, and sure enough, he took it over to the blog. Then, I noticed that his
email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I also looked in the List
Archives and found out in the past three months, he has only posted a few
times and each time it was to fight with someone.
   I am thinking that with an address like his, he is not a real person,
just another person that has to hide behind a fake identity so he can be
hateful.  I think, as a list we should not tolerate fake identities on the
list or it will end up as bad as the blog.
  I was really disappointed when I realized it was only a coward, I thought
I finally new who I wanted to meet in Tucson to tell him in person what I
thought of what he said about my daughter! : (
Thanks, Tom

Who are you to question the name his parents, Fred and Jessica Police, came up 
with for Conscience?
Don't you think he took enough ribbing in school for that?

Congrats!  Good work.  Now you know at least that that name is setting 
you up.


I do similar things with addresses that move freely amongst the many 
free and throw away accounts
Over the years has anyone else ever wondered if and why so many of  the 
So n So's Our Hero, Stop Bashing Him !, Enabler Society-- have throw 
away email addresses (e.g. yahoo, hotmail etc.) with ISP access in, for 
example--the Chicago, Illinois area?  Or why they only post to support 
the Hero, and never answer questions put to them?  Maybe it is just that 
I am paranoid...  The subscribers to this list are SOooo  played and 
many so gentle and trusting they are oblivious.


Giving things away seems, on the surface, as a noble mangamous behavior 
until you remember that Jim Jones gave away free kool-aid , Thalidimide 
was a free sample given to pregnant women, and your neighborhood drug 
dealer frequently starts a new customer with a free bag.


I think you are right--we shouldn't tolerate fake identities, we 
shouldn't tolerate being played, and when the liars are found out we 
shouldn't tolerate their deceit.  An apology is ok once  but when it is 
used over and over as a get out of jail free card, how do we expect 
that the apology is ever sincere ever?  In the long run, as was said 
long ago on the list,--this trade is based on the trust and integrity of 
the person's claim of provinence-that the material is what it is 
represented to be.  If they are deceptive in other matters why do we 
want to believe that they are suddenly wholey honest in their sales 
weights, sizes, and representations.  How would we know the material was 
even from the meteorite they claim it is?


I want to apologize for this post,  and I want to apologize in advance 
for the next one--it won't happen againand in case it does, I want 
to apologize for that one too.  Oh  did I tell you I apologize for this 
post?  (rolling my eyes)
