Hi all,
Please all do be aware I have nothing to do with this
advertisement other than a friend asked me to foreword it
to the list. I assume his posts were being blocked or long
delayed, as has been reported by many list members.
As for the iron, itself - it looks good to me, but

Ahh, well, I guess it wasn't to beoff list that is.
I'll start by letting Mike have a good look at the quote he just put down.
Note approved meteorite.
You suggest that I said that it wasn't a meteorite. I, as you can
clearly see, stated that it was merely not approved. Read it if you
don't
Actually, you threatened in your post that if I did
not answer you in time, it would be posted.
That it is paired with Richland, that is great news, I
see the date on it is 2007, so Dr Wasson has ignored
my emails for years, and finally finished the job,
still without emailing me back.
At least
Dirk, I have no idea, but it is clearly a personal
issue with Dr. Wasson. I gave them more than 500 grams
of a meteorite, I was never contacted again, or
thanked for that gift. I was further ignored for
nearly a decade when time and time again, I requested
data.

BEST ON YOUR OFFERS AND BIDS.
It would have been nice, and professional, for Dr.
Wasson to convey that fact to me, after the many
emails I have sent him over the years.
We have no issues Jason, just disagree on the facts in
a dispute that is more than 7 years old.
Since I am the one who flew to Alaska, counted out the
money,
As am I with my facts - we have a binder on it somewhere, but I do
remember quite well - it was the first thing we ever corroborated with
John on.
That being said, I don't believe we disagree on the politics of it at
all, assuming that the Richland pairing didn't play the part it
appears to have.
Again, if there is a problem with the sale, it would
be more on the Wasson/owner of the meteorite in Alaska
side of the coin, not on my side.

to sell the meteorite, something that John would
