Sorry, Michael, but 'amateur' means not only the contrary of 'professional', but comes from the latin 'amare' = to love. An amateur is also a lover.

Re: [meteorite-list] Origin of Tektites
Hi Mike and all tektitophiles, have a look on my website http://webplaza.pt.lu/guyhein/index.html. My book ' Tektites - witnesses of cosmic catastrophes' gives an explanation on impactors hitting Earth under a very oblique angle and producing tektites. The book collects a lot of research from renowned tektite researchers and supplies a plausible theory. All the best Guy Heinen Luxembourg Am 11.09.2010 um 17:27 schrieb Michael Fowler: Aubrey, Keep working on your book, I'm sure there is a lot of interest in the subject, especially for a source takes all the best research out there and puts it together in a interesting and unified narrative. Question: Oblique impacts and those impacting silica rich sedimentary rock favor tektite production. Tektites are melted and distally ejected terrestrial rock. I had not heard that Oblique impacts favor tektite production, in fact I thought that high velocity perpendicular impacts favored the vaporized ejecta plume reaching outside the earth's atmosphere. Could you elaborate on the evidence favoring oblique impacts, or provide a link to any research on the topic? Thanks, Mike Fowler Chicago Hi I'm not sure if I qualify as a tektite 'expert', but I have done a lot of private research. I am working on a book which is 2/3 complete - hopefully 2011, but I struggle to find the time with my work and new baby! I have an extensive reference list on my website www.tektites.co.uk. This includes links to many freely downloadable papers. I've not updated the site recently so some material is out of date. Also I am working on an even more extensive reference list right now. Since the 1970's there has been no doubt as to the origin of tektites. They are formed by an asteroid or comet impacting with the Earth. The tektites are formed in the very earliest stages of impact. Oblique impacts and those impacting silica rich sedimentary rock favor tektite production. Tektites are melted and distally ejected terrestrial rock. North American tektites (Bediasites and Georgiaites) come from the Chesapeake Crater. Moldavites come from the Ries crater, Germany Ivory Coast tektites come from Bosumtwi Crater in Ghana. Australasian tektites come from an undiscovered crater most likely in the Bay of Tonkin between Vietnam and China, perhaps closer to Vietnam. It will be discovered and there is no doubt in this.

Re: [meteorite-list] Steve Arnold (Elgin). Man of his word.
Hi Greg L and Greg C, I agree 100% with you. Bill, the time for writing your long e-mail must have cost you at least one hour and enough energy to press several thousand times the 'delete' button for e-mails that you don't want to read. Guy Heinen Am 20.12.2009 um 22:15 schrieb GREG LINDH: Hi Greg, I agree with your assessment. Chicago Steve may be a little odd, but who of us isn't. I have gotten a couple of free meteorites from him and I'm thankful to Steve for that. Instead of his constant complaints about someone like Steve, who has a child like quality to him in his quest to bring joy to others with his give aways, Bill should try doing likewise. Perhaps he should buy a bunch of inexpensive NWAs and just give them away to school children and perhaps his neighbors. I've done this and believe me, seeing the excitment in these people when they hold their first meteorite in their hands is worth the time and money I spent. As to you, Bill, should you read this email, I'd suggest you loose the Scrooge like attitude toward life. Life is short. Best to make an impact while we're here.

I just would like to add something to this... My experience with Chicago Steve has ALWAYS been good. He has given me many freebies and has also purchased from me, but yet has NEVER asked for anything in return. No discounts, no special deals, nothing. I have bought from him, received the meteorites in a very prompt time and they have been as described. Thats my experience. What I have seen in my limited time on the list... He offers a great deal of wonderful meteorites, FREE to those that want them. Sure, he may break the rules from time to time, but no worse then others have/do, and far less severity then many have done. A few people are ready to jump all over him for posting too much, yet remain silent while others do it. Add to that the 10-15 posts about his post, makes for 1--15x as much emails to deal with. While I am not taking any sides in this, I just felt the need to express my thoughts. Hope everyone is doing well.

[meteorite-list] meteorite slices
Dear listies, what do you think about meteorite slices showing still the marks of the saw blade, giving you even the opportunity to calculate the saw blade's diameter? Alas, times of mirror-finished slices sold by dealers like David New seem to be gone. A proposal to dealers: Sell your slices or partslices a-quality: polished surface b-quality: sawed surface. Most meteorite collectors don't have grinding or polishing tools and are collecting meteorites also for the aesthetics of a mirror-finished surface showing fine details. A partslice showing saw marks is something very ugly. Some collectors seem to sublimate this ugliness by the thrill to held something extraterrestrial in their hands and are not demanding for a quality finished surface.
