Hello all
Sincerely to feel itself to say pizzano is a species
of offense towards other persons of other nations,
like the classic eats spaghetti to the the Italians.
it is like if I said to the Americans eats
hamburger, task that is not a lot tolerated this?

I happened to catch the last
few minutes of a show on PBS about extinction. One of the scientist had compiled
data on thousands of extinct species and graphed the times of their extinction.
In the timeline he created there seemed to be above normal rates of mass
extinction every 26 million
Hi Edward and List,
I took a course in college called Catastrophes and Mass
Extinctions. Our "textbook" was called "Nemesis the Death Star and Other
Theories of Mass Extinction." As I recall, Nemesis was not one of the more
compelling theories, but interesting to contemplate nonetheless.

I must be more organized than I thought! Found the book
smushed between abiography of Alexander the Great and "How to Clean Just
About Anything". OK, maybe I'm not that organizedbut I did find
it! : )

Matteo, although Steve has posted what amounts to the same sales or
trade pitch more than once in a day, I cannot recall ever seeing 6
similar messages from him in one day. I think it is possible that
you've received multiple copies of his posts, which really wouldn't be

Hello List Members
I have just a few items left and want to offer these
as a one time trade offer. I am looking for a stable
iron of any type or form (but MUST be stable, bigger
the better). Best deal gets the last of them

That happens a lot with computer recreations I guess no one wants to make a
texture map for the ancient earth and it's easier to use NASA made (current)
maps to create earth models in 3D. Maybe I'll make one one day.
Take care,
Ron

Hi Edward and all,
Recently it was announced (on this list) that the Sun was made primarily of iron and
doesn't have the hydrogen that was once thought. This is a new theory based on
observations by astronomers. It was said that the sun formed from a single supernova
event and probably was a

Hello to all,
To those that are interested,
I have been given a collection to sell which contain many interesting
and unique meteorites. These are name brand specimens, most with a history
and not NWA (not that NWA is bad, I have many). For those interested in
this collection, email me off list
Rhett,
Me too. It is a rare commodity in this world. Keep up the great work. One
GOOD thing is that the rules for governing both lists were made stronger by
all of this.
All the best,

The trouble with many of these theories (Nemesis star, iron sun, etc.) is
that they are on the wacko fringe. The evidence for them is not
sufficiently established yet that they can be taken as a serious
challenge, which is not to say that they are completely ridiculous. There
needs to be more
Greetings all,
I don't want to speak for Steve Arnold, but I believe there has been
a misunderstanding. If the racist comment is his use of the word
pizzano, it was misinterpreted. The word he was trying to convey
was (I don't know the spelling so will write it phoenitically)
pie-zon-o. Which

Rhett,
I am really confused with this action so if I am out of line please correct me.
I just want to be sure that Mr. Arnold is indeed a racist because this is a very
serious charge
and now his reputation is sullied by making it public.
Racists slurs are very damaging and hurtful to the

Hello Again,
According to G. Verschuur, the consequences
Appears that Steve may have meant paisano but spelled it pizzano, if
that's the case this whole big thing is based on bad spelling rather than an
ethnic slur.
My understanding is that paisan or paisano is roughly equivalent to
dude or bro, and is a term of endearment rather than an insult.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think Rhett revoked Steve's posting
privileges based upon the following statement:
The purpose of the mailing list is to alert people of frauds
Steve decided to post another one of his sales messages for the same old
material to that list and as a result got
When Lowell spotted canals on Mars everyone though he was crazy, one hundred

I am looking for gem cases to put some of my
meteorites in. I thought I saw someone offering some for sale a while back. Does
anyone have them for sale or have an idea where I might buy them?

Bernd,
House-sized chunks of rock would be
tossed hundreds of miles and our atmosphere would be saturated with dust
for years.
This would be bad...
Thanks for all the information.

For newcomers, we had a brief exchange on this subject about a year and a

Good evening Listees,
Anybody know whether there are brands of pressurized air cans (as used
to blow dust out of computers, off photo negs, etc) that features a dry
gas suitable for displacing the air and preserving iron meteorites in

Actually, there's even some skepticism about whether or not the 26 million

I'll easily second your sentiments on Rob, I've ordered a number of

Then Steve admits his mistake to you privately, and you then
teach him a lesson by putting him on
"probation"? Does he still receive posts from the IMCA group site?
Or did you stop those?
