I am absolutely with Rob here! And especially I also concur with the personal statements of my fellow countrymen Matthias and Siegfried, and with the comments of my fellow Austrian collector friend Herbert made earlier. The arguments of the IMCA board member´s decision should be made much more transparent, imho, in addition to what has already been said by it´s president, Anne Black. I would also like to read not only the re-iterated personal comments from one of the conflicting parties, but also from the opposing side. Yes, this is better done on the IMCA list, essentially, but it should not be confined to just that place since I believe this is a matter of more general interest to a wider audience, as almost everyone of us meteorite friends, independent of being a member of that association, is involved in dealing, trading, buying, exchanging - all sorts of transaction which are expected to be based on integrity and seriosity of the participants. A sad day...
