Jim, Paul, and List:

I agree with Walter on this.

It's a shame when people freely give to all in this manner and have their
good-will treated with bad-will.

There are so many ways to make contributions in this field.
Jim and Paul found one and did an honorable job at it.

Perhaps with encouragement and support they will reconsider.

Best,

WHAT!

Meteorite Times is ending?

Over egos, personality conflicts, and "business."

It is of course, it is your right end your website but let me tell you,
I think Meteorite Times is (or now, was) one of the best, most
entertaining, most informative and "freshest" sites devoted to
meteorites.  I will surely miss the site, as will others.

The highest compliments I receive regarding my own site
are from teachers who tell me they use my site as part of their
curriculum on space and astronomy.  I am often asked by teachers
to recommend other sites, and Meteorite Times quickly became
a part of my "must visit" sites.  It is a shame that this resource
will no longer be available.  Many times, we don't realize that
these websites we have created extend beyond those of
use who spend our hard-earned money to collect these rocks and
beyond the Meteorite Central list server.

Still, I understand Jim and Paul's reasoning.  I just have one
request to make.  Jim or Paul, please email me privatly.  I
would like to know the individuals responsible for causing
you so much grief.  Whomever they are, I want to to ensure
that their particular egos receive no more of my money.

I am really upset over this.

-Walter
