Dear List,
A reminder about the Joel Schiff gift campaign...
Most of you have heard the wonderful news that Meteorite Magazine will now
live on! During the time that we all thought we had lost Meteorite for good,
a number of us put our heads together to discuss what to do for Joel and
this is what we came up with:
In thanks for, and recognition of eleven years' hard work bringing us such a
great magazine, we are collecting funds that will be used to purchase a
special meteorite gift for Joel Schiff. We have just the perfect thing in
mind.
If you'd like to get involved, here's what you can do:
Send a cash gift via PayPal or check to Maria Haas, who is in charge of
collecting and tabulating. My email and PayPal account is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] I can accept credit cards, debit cards and bank account
payments through my PayPal. Those who are uncomfortable with or unable to
use PayPal are welcome to contact me for my mailing address to send a gift
an alternative way (cash, check, money order, etc.).
If everyone who has enjoyed "M" donated $10 or more, we'd be able to acquire
a stellar gift for Joel. This would mean a lot to him while he is recovering
from his illness.
Geoff will design a one-of-a-kind certificate, on behalf of the meteorite
community, to go along with the gift and we'll notify you of the nature of
the gift.
We should keep our discussions about this off of lists as much as possible
to reduce the chance of spoiling the surprise.
Those of you who so kindly donated their subscription refund to the cause
need not be concerned about interruption of your subscription as your funds
still remain with the magazine. Of course, if you were interested in making
a cash donation for the same amount your refund would have been we would
cheerfully use it to purchase his gift. :)
We don't want anyone to miss the chance to get involved so please pass this
along to every meteorite enthusiast you know! Thanks to those of you who
have already sent donations.
Please feel free to contact either of us with questions.
Sincerely,
Maria Haas ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
Geoff Notkin ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
