In regards to the loss of respect I am referring to, I would like to
clarify something. I still respect all hunters, collectors, scientists
and enthusiasts on this list just as I do on other lists I am a member
of. I'm not above admitting that maybe I was a bit too harsh in that
statement. The ones I am referring to simply lose some hero points
because of the tirades.
I very highly respect the "anyone" who puts in the hours or research,
field work, and the compiling of the data it takes to be successful in
this business, especially when they are successful. When there are
personal attacks publicly on-list this effect all of us because they
become a reflection on the meteorite community to new comers and the media.
That's all I have to say on this...

Well said, Eric. I was so impressed with the posts I read for the first two
months I was on the List. The last two weeks have completely erased my
respect for those who have conducted the most egotistical, immature and
unprofessional smear attacks against list members. If they cannot control
their egos and testosterone and have to fight, they should "take it
outside." I do not want my friends to think I am like that. Other forums
restrict such conduct, and so should the List.
Regards,
Paul
