I am sure Mike did not mean to be rude. I too feel that as one who chipped in to thank Art for providing us such an amazing forum for exploring all phases of meteorites, it would be a hoot to see the prize.
I do hope we get to see the prize, the fun of giving is being in on the giving.
Sincerely,
Dave F (whose birthday is Sept. 9, pray for a fall)

Dear List,
After reading the messages that are stated below I felt compelled to respond myself. It is not my intentions to step on anyone's feelings but I felt I needed to say something about this subject, because I threw in monies to go for this gift as well. I did this because of the fact that I think it is cool that this site is up and running and its a small way of saying thanks to Art for all he has done. Now, I too question and wonder why we haven't heard of what has come of the monies and the gift. Did he like it? Half the fun of pitching in on a gift for someone is seeing their reaction. When I read the messages posted below, I got the feeling that were being told we are rude for even asking. I am sure this was not Mike's intentions but it felt the same to me. I am hoping we hear something soon.
Sincerely,
Rex
Hi Mike, When do we get to see Art's Birthday present for which we all sent you money? Have you sent it to him already? Whazzup.
Best wishes, Michael
Hello List and Mike Farmer,
I noticed Michael Blood asked about Art's birthday present and as one of the people that sent you money and suggested to other list members that i t would be a nice thing to do, I thought I would also ask, Did Art get hi s gift from the list? I am sure other list members are curious as well.

I belive that is between Art and I , I have emailed him several times. I have his piece still, I am sure he will love it.
