Hello list,
I would like to write some additions to our Norway report to avoid
misunderstandings. I`m sorry for this, but it seems necessary. Mr. Martinsen
(the finder of the first meteorite) had asked us on Sunday, 23th to inform
other searching teams that it is NOT ALLOWED to enter his garden without
permission. His neighbours had informed him that foreign people were in his
garden. Mr. Martinsen's garden is to be recognized unmistakable as a private
area because many personal belongings are there, like canvas chairs and
various gardening tools. I want to say that we don't belong to any
"meteorite police" but we simply offer our help to the garden owner after
his inquiry because we wanted to avoid that the finding site will be closed
for the future for other visitors. Mr. Martinsen was so kind to show really
to all collectors the finding place and the famous metal plate with the
impact dint. But we all should respect his private sphere.
Marcin, it is no joy for me to write this, but you are wrong with your view
of the things. You had written in your email that you have gone to Mr.
Martinsens garden and have removed meteorite samples without permission
because you had no time to ask for a permission. You have also written that
you had spoken long with Mr. Martinsen and I think that you had in the
conversation a good opportunity to ask for a permission. It is a simple fact
that Mr. Martinsen's garden and everything what is located there is his
personal property, and nobody has a right to remove something there.

If you try to call our reputation into question, then I ask you to write
your accusations in clear words.
Best wishes,

Hi Moni,
if they won't behave, like that European team from a country starting with
"P" trampling through the gardens ploughing up the flowerbeds under the
eyes
of the dumbfounded house owners, I wish all success to the American party.

Hello List.
Its alvays nice to comeback to home from succesfull and exciting trip and
find that You are slandered by others who are also not clean like
crystals.
Yes we found specimens of this new incredible fall. Fragments from first
recovered specimens that hit iron plate. Fragments that could found
Martinsen family, people from Oslo university, Americans, Germans,
Norwegians, Swedens hunter teams and hundreds of other persons who visit
this place before we arrive. We was lucky enough to find them in area
where
others walk destroying them with his shoes. Thats why we are pirats,
thiefs
and bad guyz ?
When we finaly arrived into fall site of first specimen after 4 hours of
searching this place we enter into empty property of Mr Ragnar Martinsen
to
make some photos of ourself and iron plate that lay on the ground. There
was
NO TIME to wait for someone from Martinsen family and ASK for permission
to
enter. We have only 2,5 day for hunt then some of our group must comeback
to
regular work. Next day we meet Martinsen family at their house and make
with
then nice long talk and ofcourse some photos with lucky finder. Norvegian
people are very friendly and Im sure it was not a problem to enter
Martinsen property in that specific case.
We look aroun forest, grass fields, streets etc. around Ragnars property,
but we
not enter into growing wheat/corn fields what do European team member from
a
country starting with "G" and finaly was loudy removed by the locals
patroling this area. No comments.
I lost my will to write detailed report from our unplanned and express
hunting trip even if I finally found my first meteorite, the special one
and
beautifull one as I alvays dreamed.
