Fredric, Welcome to the active side (posting) of the list! I heard there are laws to protect innocent people from lurkers, well maybe not list lurkers, so never mind! : ) I guess I would have to get rid of my collection to make me a real non collector, so as long as I have one, I will always be. I have some meteorites that are sentimental that I will always have. I guess if I ever walk past a black rock with out taking a closer look, then I will know I no longer love meteorites! Again, welcome, one great big happy family here on the list, an occasional family squabble, but we all love each other in the end!
