Adam, Proprietary name? Has anyone ever heard of
this kind of garbage before? That is like saying that you suggested the Park
Forest name. If it fell there, then that is the name and so what if it was you
or anyone else who submitted it. That is getting to the bottom or retardedness
Adam.
I never accused you of making this fall up, Since
you like to ignore the facts, show us the email where I said that.
I did not say you had no material, I said you
should show proof, you now have, why it took a week I dont really comprehend but
no matter.
Stop looking for accusations and such where none
exists.
Adam, I said YOU, I know your brother has been to
the field more, 3 or 4 times, Kenya, Morocco 3 or 4 times. Where else in the
world? Washington state?
I have been to Morocco 30 times, I can prove it
with showing all of my passport stamps, undeniable proof. It shows that I know
what the hell I am doing there.
You did well with your trips after I took Greg with
me, showing him the people I had cultivated since the first trip, makes it quite
easy for you.
Now, please stop fighting, I dont want to, I have
proven my points, you ignored them all after I responded, so I see it worked.
I am almost out of material for now, will get some
more in a few days. Sell yours, Ill sell mine, all will be happy I hope.
Good bye and good night to all.
I am jet lagged to all heck and going to bed for a
good nights sleep in my own bed.
Photos of the Spain portion of my expedition
will be posted tomorrow.

prices and photos
Dear Mike and List,
I will try not to be too negative in this posting
but feel, once again, compelled to respond.
First of all Mike, you told us to produce the
goods and accused us of being like Casper offering specimens we did not have
in stock.
Response: Basically you said show me the
money and we did. We produced the goods and every stone in the image is
part of this new fall. The color is somewhat off because of the lighting
as we have already stated off-List. In reality most are jet black. The
large stone does have a little bit of oxidation as do a few others but it is
definitely part of this fall. Remember this fall is several months old
and some of the pieces were collected recently. H chondrites sometimes
oxidize quickly, especially if they have halite crystals in them and have been
out in the weather. 90% of what we have are cherry picked individuals
with minimal or no oxidation. For the most part the reddish and blue
hews are from differing temperatures during ablation as can also be seen on
Bensour.
Secondly, you accused us of only being in the
field one time and sitting on our butts using DHL for our deliveries in a
previous post. You then went on to say you have been to Morocco 30
times.
Response: Who do you think is going to
believe this? We have already published our experiences on numerous
expeditions and have several other articles in the works. I am sure you
will look forward to reading the August issue of Outside Magazine this summer
in which you are mentioned. Saying you have been to Morocco 30 times is
like saying you repaired the same transmission in your car 30 times therefor
you must be an expert. I see you are using DHL for your next
shipment, a smart move considering how much cheaper it is than going there
unnecessarily.
Third, you said we made up this new fall and do
not have any material from it.
Response: You apparently recognize we were
working on this fall for some time as you are using our Proprietary
in-house and Provisional name for this new fall on your
website.
Mike, slow down and stop abusing every person on
the List that does not agree with what you have to say. A lot of List
members are afraid to disagree with you in public for fear of some obnoxious
reprisal. Several have left because of this according to dozens of
emails we have collected. If you look at each argument, you are in the
center of it 95% of time. We have been guilty of disagreeing with you in
public because you pose no threat to us. We apologize to those who were
offended by them but we never once reduced it the level of name
calling.
Truly wishing everybody the best and enjoy
Amgala, the new fall.

prices and photos
I saw the photos from the other dealers, and am
really not sure what to make of them. The large stone looks like nwa 869,
note the fragmented edges, look weathered. Perhaps bad lighting? As you can
see in my photo, the stones are black as night on the outside and white as
snow on the inside. No question with my photo.
Anyway 75% of mine is already sold, I am
offering the meteorite for $10.00 gram across the board. Fragments, or
complete stones, same price as I have little left anyway.
Here is my list
2.41 gram individual 100% crusted.
3.01 gram individual 100% crusted.
90.00 gram individual 100%

45.54 gram individual 97% crusted.
