Arnold- The True Gentleman
Mr Geoffrey Notkin is a true gentleman.
THE TRUE GENTLEMAN
by John Walter Wayland:
"The True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and
an acute sense
of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies; who does
not make the poor
man conscious of his poverty, the obscure man of his obscurity, or any man
of his inferiority or
deformity; who is himself humbled if necessity compels him to humble
another; who does not
flatter wealth, cringe before power, or boast of his own possessions or
achievements; who speaks
with frankness but always with sincerity and sympathy; whose deed follows
his word; who
thinks of the rights and feelings of others, rather than his own; and who
appears well in any
company, a man with whom honor is sacred and virtue safe."

Dear Paul, Jim and Listees:
Paul, thank you for being, as always, so thoughtful. We are delighted
that you were interested enough in our Brenham collectibles to offer them
on your Meteorites-For-Sale.com site, which is doing important work in
bringing new collectors to the field. Our pre-broadcast special limited
edition of 100 Brenham lucites will soon be sold out and I was expecting
to shortly be referring our customers to you anyway : )
The Brenham lucite collectible is a part slice with olivine crystals,
expertly prepared by Mike Miller, and taken from an actual mass found by
Steve and myself while filming our "Meteorite Men" special for the
Science Channel. It has already been offered to our private sales list
and there are a few remaining editions available. If any of you would
like to receive advance notification of upcoming private sales, please
reply to me off-List.
The Brenhams have been set in a top quality transparent lucite block and
are accompanied by a color 8 1/2 x 11 numbered certificate of
authenticity, and an exclusive excavation color photo, both of which are
signed by Steve and myself. Price is only $99 + shipping.
For those of you who might like to add one of these items to your
meteorite collection, you can purchase from our friends at
Meteorites-For-Sale.com here:
http://www.meteorites-for-sale.com/catalog/brenham.html
Or from Steve and myself here:
http://www.aerolite.org/meteoritemen/brenham-kansas-meteorite.htm
Paul and Jim do more than most to make the meteorite collecting community
a better place, and there is absolutely no need to apologize to us or
fellow List members. Keep up the great work!
Respectfully,
Geoff N.
