Gday Mike, probably what you want, is the same as what I want, a flat lap,
this is a disc that rotates like an old vinyl LP. You can get them from eBay
in various grades of diamond grit, you of course need the flat lap machine
to drive them, or make your own. When you are done grinding out

ploy.
That is very interesting, I have the same problem on my laptop when I go to

Any computer guru out there know what this might be?

Hi Edwin and List,
I do not know why you dragged my name into this unproductive argument. I
restrained myself from making a single comment but since you brought my name
into it, I will respond.
First of all, I think it is very unprofessional spreading rumors around
about having planetary pieces.
is this business legit? is it on the "upup"? i have NEVER received a reply from them either be email or by tel. anybody done business with them recently?
i will be gradually switching over to yahoo mail (it has 100 FREE megs of storage). please cc to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
No business with Russ Kempton of NEMS recently, and I, too, wonder what may
have happened to him and his sales and trade point on the internet. I
remember him to be a very good, honest, knowledgeable and friendly dealer in
a distant past - i.e. I bought some rare thin sections and my small Nakhla

I do hope all of you gentlemen do not forget the beer(s) you owe Mark Bostick.
Mark is definitely not the evil-doer but the victim of whatever happened or did
not happen in E.T.'s room. He comes home from Tucson, writes a thorough,

Hi Bernd,
Yes, I agree and I am glad you brought this up. I feel ashamed that I did
not bring this to the attention of the list yesterday.

Bernd,
As you might see, I wrote that Mark innocently reported about Edwin's fake

Hi ?
As you mentioned Nininger used 34.### for Canyon Diablos. So it is probably a

not to forget, that we poor Europeans and others, who couldn't attend the

Indeed, but the story goes deeper,
Edwin had been told by myself and others (including scientists) that the 2.5

other dealers rooms. That did not
