Dear all,

"NWA 2999 Abstract Plagiarism":

Regarding the disgusting thievery of copyrighted abstract content and the pure laziness of the culprit, Ron Ferrell - Blasphemy Sciences "Holiday catalog" (or what ever he is called), should publicly apologize to all who he has stolen from and insulted. I, and all who have contributed to the discovery and study of NWA 2999, work way too hard to have a common criminal steal our work. I do not go to Morocco on average of every 2-3 months, spend a ton to acquire these rare meteorites just to have some jerk rip off my finds and our work.

I am disgusted and pissed off! I just returned home last night after 24 hours of travel to see this crap. I am too tired to even get started. My advise to this
idiot is to go there and do it yourself! What a clown!

I was surprised too, so much in fact that I didn't bother reading it in the
Bethany Holiday Catalog figuring it was BS as no authors were listed. Now to
see it is a real article composed by some long standing and reliable names,
I share in David's guarded optimism and I am pleased to see science stepping
outside of the box and taking a swing at defining the angrites better. This
will undoubtedly be further discussed and contested, I applaud the folks at
UW, NAU, and Carnegie for taking that first step.

Dear Dave and List,

The AGU abstract is copyrighted and I agree that a blatant act of plagiarism
is at hand. I already reported the incident to a few of the other authors
who are not happy with the situation at all. It is important to respect
intellectual property. It is alright to quote and reference abstracts but
most are copyrighted. Substitution of laboratory and official numbers is
breaking the law and in this case is bad business. My brother, Greg and I
work very closely with the scientists listed on this abstract and to be
listed as a co-author is a privilege that we do not take lightly. We find
this blatant plagiarism to be distasteful and in poor judgement.

Kind Regards,
