Re: [meteorite-list] Pictures of thieves
Hi Blake and all, I've been scrutinizing these pics. I am pretty sure these people came in the room when I was in there at one time. I remember the blue shirt guy and the women. I might remember the gray shirt guy. So they may have picked up some other items and it might be worth checking out other parts of the video at a time when I was there. Best wishes all (except to the thieves)! --AL Mitterling Mitterling Meteorites Quoting Blake via Meteorite-list : To answer a couple issues, Yes the gal in the picture was with the guy who stole the Sikhote. I believe that they were working with the guy in the blue shirt. In the video it seems to me that he was blocking Blaine's view so the guy could take the Sikhote. The gal didn't come into the picture until after he took it and then they switched places (guy and gal) so he could take the Mount Dooling. I'm pretty sure the gal was in on it. They came into the room as a couple and I doubt that he could end up showing to her without her knowing how he got it. My ability to send the video is limited by my server. I re-did the clip (made it shorter) so I can send it (20MB). I wanted to make sure that it was in full 1080 resolution. The Mount Dooling was behind the necklace display so the only way you can tell he took it is seeing him reach for it then you have to zoom in and single step as he pulls his hand back. Then you can see an end of the rock sticking out of his hand as he puts it in his pocket in a couple frames. Windows 10 no longer has movie maker. A lot of people are complaining about that. You have to down load a movie editor. I think there is a version of movie maker available but I doubt that this little tablet/laptop could handle it well. My old (really old) XP machine does have it but I doubt that it could handle it well either. I do have a clip that I can send from my system but then it becomes a question of what the receiver's server can handle (usually 10MB).

Re: [meteorite-list] Thieves
Dear Rafael, Perhaps it's o.k. with you if someone steals a meteorite, but it isn't with me. Being in the business for 30 years and a close friend of Blaine Reed and seeing on video how people work, I think my assessment is just fine and I'll make a judgement call if I so desire. Seems to me that maybe you have guilty feelings about something. If anything I'd say you are a much bigger crybaby than me. So why don't you keep your crying to yourself! --AL Mitterling Mitterling Meteorites Quoting Rafael Navarro : Stop being a crybaby. You say well: "It looks like to me ..." because that photo does not prove anything, you can get a sued for defamation. If you want I send you the $ 2 USD, which costs that meteorite, but stops be crying.
