Re: [meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
Listoids, With very few comments here on the list I also feel the need to respond to this "cube" story. It doesn't matter how many slices are added for sale of Cape York, collectors always love them and pay plenty bucks for them. Now we start nagging about a cube..? If this sucker would also be sliced up we probably again will oooeehh and aaahh about the beauty of them. Now for those folksjust look at it as a very thick sliceHappy again? Look, I'm frustrated also for not making it to Tucson this year but at least I still have a life(can't believe I really said that) Have a good on you all. Especially for all the jerks who made it to Tucson, rrrgggrrr..

[meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
As some of you may you I only collect Meteorite Spheres. Most people seem to appreciate my collection but I've run across a few people that have demonstrated utter disdain about how I choose to collect. Personally I think that it's up to each individual to collect in a way that works for them. I have no problem with someone not liking my collection but there's a point when subjective criticism become rude and obnoxious behavior. IMO, Matteo's comments about this cube tend to be more toward the rude end of the spectrum. __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Re: [meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
Obviously true, Christian. And also true in John's note that cubes are better than slices in some cases due to less kerf waste. I'd imagine most (if not everyone) who have commented on the 3D aesthetic values also love spheres for similar reasons. No need to expand on that... Thanks for all of the insight, and to you, Keith, for getting all of this rolling with your terrific pictures!

Re: [meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
Your points are right on the money, Martin. I very much agree, and it surprising to see that there is little-to-no market appreciation in terms of perceived economic value for this work with irons, particularly slices. I'll assume that perhaps you would second my point below re: stones, and we can leave it at that (in fact, a little marketing machine is being ramped up as we type for a beautiful stone which no doubt will be rolled out to slaughter in short order, and it will be pathetic to watch). The only part of my original note that started volleying back and forth was the point about cutting meteorites and waste. My point had more to do with the larger picture outlined in the list Policies: be courteous and professional, no personal attacks, identify ADs properly and limit them to once per week so as to avoid spamming the group, etc. All good points. All frequently ignored.

Re: [meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
Hello List I can't understand why you think this is a horrible end for a meteorite. You can see the 3 dimensional Widmanstatten perfect and the shape of the troilite inclusions, better than in any 2D slice. No materiel was wasted in getting the cube shape, other than normal saw and grind waste, It was a large long brick, after removing several slices it's a cube. I think the Karl's did a great job. I'll post more later this week.

Re: [meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
List, This is a polarizing subject, to be sure. As much as I love the photos (please keep them coming, Keith), I agree that the destruction of meteorites is a problem. A little more on this via the following link (Part II): http://www.fallingrocks.com/priority.htm Also, the following are the Policies we've all agreed to when participating in the list (I've cut and pasted them below): "General List Policies - 1. All posts need to relate to meteorites in some way 2. Please be courteous and professional at all times 3. Do not post -private messages- or -personal attacks- to the list (direct all personal replies to the specific recipient) 4. Please include a relevant -subject- in the subject of the email 5. Do NOT send -HTML- or -Rich Text- formatted emails ... only TEXT will be posted 6. Do NOT send emails with -file attachments- to the list (include a web link to the file) 7. Limit AD posts to once-per-week (i.e. refrain from spamming the list with ads) 8. All AD posts should contain the words -SALE- or -AD- in the subject of the email" Just today, posts have strayed from at least #1, #2, #3, #7 and #8. This is a wonderful thing, the list, and the Policies are well structured to keep it that way. Apologies for the unsolicited opinion, but #2 and #3 are particularly important in keeping a good group together...

[meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day
> Could you be any more stupid? > he's not stupid, but - I think - jealous Keith's photo is awesome, as are all his photos. Thank you so much, Keith, for letting us participate in the Tucson Show events even though we are so far away! But, gentlemen, tolerance and freedom of opinion, please! Now that we don't hear very much from Steve Arnold, Chicago, it looks as if picking on Matteo is "hip" again! I must admit that when I saw that cube, my first idea was it must be a "mock-up" or something like that, ... maybe someone cracking a joke. The picture is fascinating, the cube breathtaking, Keith's idea to post the photo an excellent idea but I would not want to "change" the natural appearance of such an important meteorite and "force" it into such a geometrical "corset". My very personal opinion, only! Bernd __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
