RE: [meteorite-list] thanks for the recomendations

Steve,

 

   We, your colleagues on this list, have heard this before.  I hope for ALL our sakes (especially yours) you become successful in getting on the right track as you have proposed.

 

  Steve, ponder this just to yourself. Do you REALLY appreciate these rocks from space for what they truly are - scientific treasures each and every one of them? Or are they just chattel to you - to be bought, traded and forgotten. I too once thought of getting into the "business", but I cannot bring myself to part with any of my collection...they are just too precious to me. EACH of them is a link to occurances in the distant past of the solar system that we can only try to devine through science. To hold each one is to connect with the Universe in a way that is not possible through any other means.

 

Of course you can do whatever you want with your collection, but you can do so in private or through other means as many have suggested without causing undue attention to be brought upon yourself via this List. Think about it Steve and let your actions speak far louder than your words on this List have done so far.

 

I wish you well in this worthy personal endeavour.

 

All the best,

Greg Redfern

Good evening list. I'll try and keep it short. I guess when you let the horse out of the barn, it is stupid to go and close the barn door. Well I want to thank all the decent people who have emailed me about my constant posting of reposting. From now on Iam going to take the advise of all who have gone on before in this great hobby, to think what I am doing before it becomes a habitual nightmare of never ending posts of nothing. Thank you all for the "smart " emails to help guide me and make me think before I act. When I look back at all the same repeats, it boggles my mind why I did it. Well it is a new year, and I guess I just needed to be told and learn, and go from there. Thanks again for getting me back on track.
