Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite-list Digest, Vol 261, Issue 15
I appreciate the immense amount of time I anticipated you would spend on your reply. Thinking extensively about this, I wondered why you tried to shame me as a hypocrite, even when you have witness to me striving for best practices. Having autism I often struggle to understand people's intention. Many times I have gone wrong assuming the worst in people's actions. So one of my strategies is to try to think of the best possible intention that someone could have. I admit sometimes it is difficult with your approach (and attempt to shame me) but since your critique was not sound I came to reason that you saw an injustice that I perpetrated against Benzaki Mohamed and you felt the need to "punch the bully in his face". A fierce sense of justice that sometimes leads me to act foolish is also part of my condition so I was able to have sympathy with this realization. Now that you have responded I can more clearly see your intention. So here is my considered response. To the community: I am happy to assist with meteoritics in any way that I can. If you have material that you feel might be paired with mine I am happy to look at any information and give my honest response. It would be unethical and dirty feeling to do otherwise. I have not made it to where I am in life by acting in short term interests. Relationships are life long. To Benzaki Mohamed: I am sorry if I shamed you. I am often blunt and act quickly. Jason's best point is that I should have reached out to you in private first. If you send me images or any supporting information I am happy to give you my honest opinion. You would then have my full support marketing the material as paired if it checks out. To Jason: I forgive you. I know what it is like to have conflict with the world.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite-list Digest, Vol 261, Issue 15
Hello Jason, As long as material is described accurately, I don't care what you do. I only butted in here because it annoyed me to see you attacking a Moroccan seller who is probably selling accurately paired material, while you’re openly doing the same thing with other meteorites. Glass house + throwing stones, not cool. I'm saying that it *should* be fine for you to buy and sell HaH 346 and Jikharra 001 as those meteorites as long as you've accurately IDd them. But not if you're going to tell other people they can't do the same thing. That's the rub. Your points - 1 & 4) Why does it matter where you got your HaH 346? It didn't matter to you where Benzaki got his NWA 15758. Your posts didn't address the origin of Benzaki Mohamed's CK in any way, or whether or not his material is paired with NWA 15758. Based on everything you've shared here, you don't know or care about whether or not Benzaki's material is paired with yours. Your concern is "your NWA number" and protecting that investment. I can empathize with that, but your #1 and #4 bullet points don't agree with your actions: Did you ask Benzaki where his material had come from before you sent that public complaint? No. Did you confirm that it came from a different finder, the same place, or a different place? No. When it came to 'protecting your NWA number,' none of that mattered. Sure, the onus is on him to show it's paired, but you didn't give him a chance. You were preemptively trying to avoid any possible / probable pairings to 'protect your investment.' I understand your motivations, and think many dealers would take your side, but it's ethically questionable, at best. TKWs affect meteorite values, and if you're aware of significant pairings, (main) masses, etc., and you hide that information from your customers, that's dishonest. Sure, new things can turn up, but what if a dealer sold you a "main mass," and you later found out that they were aware of a larger specimen all along? Would you care? Would you be annoyed? What would you think? ...Is what you're doing here any different? You asked me what I would do. I sold some NWA 15364 (nakhlite) a while back. When describing it, I said: "Northwest Africa 15364 is one member of a large pairing group including, but not limited to: Hassi Messaoud 001, Bir Moghrein 002, Qued Mya 005, NWA 13368, NWA 13669, NWA 13764, NWA 13786, NWA 14369, NWA 14962, and NWA 15200. The published total known weight of these finds is approximately 4.3 kilograms. It is probable that additional pairings will be approved in the future." That was ~as accurate as I could describe the meteorite's pairings and TKW, to the best of my ability. I spent a bit of time looking at the analytical data for each of them in the Bulletin, finding photos of each of them, and trying to make sure I got it right. I guess I could have omitted mentioning the pairings, to make my pieces seem more rare? Would that be honest? I'd say no. But a few dealers are definitely doing that with some of those pairings... It hurts collectors. Last week, I saw someone comment on a Facebook post, excited because he'd purchased multiple pieces of the above nakhlites. He thought he'd bought pieces of different meteorites, not pieces of paired stones. He seemed disappointed to learn otherwise. It's great for the sellers, not so good for collectors. And it's not a new issue. The first similar instance I remember was in an ancient met-list thread back in the early 2000s, when someone tried to sell a meteorite paired with NWA 869. NWA...900ish, if I recall... It's probably been 15 years. Hmmm... http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com/2004/nov/0989.html http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com/2004/nov/1120.html http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com/2004/nov/0961.html My email doesn't go back that far, had to find it on Google. NWA 900 is another 869 pairing, but the problem was NWA 904. I've never really sat down and thought about it, but a significant part of the NWA market is based on dealers pleading or feigning ignorance about pairings and TKWs to collectors. It's ~accepted conduct, and it’s totally unethical. Dean Bessey called it out back in 2004, and nothing's changed. 2 & 5) We're talking about scientific descriptions of rocks. Little rocks are rocks. Big rocks are rocks. Size doesn't matter. Unfortunately, larger finds and falls are widely distributed, tend to get less scrutiny, and get mislabeled often. Those three big meteorites you're using as examples are some of the biggest problems, because they're such large finds. Sure, it can be fun: I couldn't tell you the number of interesting things I've pulled out of lots of "NWA 869" over the years. And you should keep an eye out for the fresh L3s in shipments of HaH 346. Many of them still have skid-marks, and there's nothing quite like a W0 type-3. If you're on Facebook, you've probably seen the multi-kg lots of a totally new brecciated eucrite being
