Thanks for the positive,pleasant post about wayner44.He sure made your
day,i'll bet,and you sure made my day with such a positive post about
someone who

to inform us.My hat is off to you.

Postal Doug,
Of course, the U.S. Mail is subsidized and
supported by law -- it's a government service,
as the National Posts of many nations are.
I believe, as Mr. Franklin did, that governments
exist to provide useful and necessary services
for its citizens, and a mandate to establish
a postal

Hi
.. On the other hand, here in the UK, our postal '''service''' is slowly
being privatized TO DEATH, already most parcels are shipped by
separately run companies, and the profit making part of the royal mail
has been basically given away. The postal system is in tatters, moral at
an all time
Hi Sterling:
You forgot overnight mail; Pony Express. It took 11 days (Missouri to
California) and initially cost $5.00 for 1/2 oz. Assuming beer was 2 bits
(25 cents), that is a lot of beer!

And, presumably, a lot of oats and hay :)

Hi Folks!
Ran across this today on eBay :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=150242680616
Now, don't everyone go beating a path to this seller's
door! ;) LOL
I have no connection to the seller, BTW.

Hi all,
I don't know Arnold#1 (Steve) or Farmer personally but have been
corresponding with Paul since I got into this meteorite biz. I know Paul
is a good guy, and if Steve and Mike are his friends then they must be
OK too. As Farmer said, maybe it's a spring cleaning thing.
Ruben's right!
I have just opened the package and examined the
pieces.
The meteorite is clearly an H chondrite, likely H4
since it has large chondrules, (one chondrule
measuring 4 mm was in the box, broken out of the
matrix, a perfect little gray egg shaped single
chondrule! It is a breccia, one piece weighing
In addition to new falls, etc,, how about some comments on laboratory
methods to match samples that was posted the other day?
I received two great responses off-line - none on the list.
Maybe everyone is interested more in the bickering and the BS!

Please Stop Responding To This...
All I did was clarify what I was doing so some people on the list would
understand.
Ruben did not read all of my email and assumed there was a problem.
I then sent an email to the list to clarify that I did not have any
problem with Steve #1 and Michael.

Hello Dave and all;
Dave you are spot on with that statement.Surprises are still possible,i
think,if someone makes an effort for such an event.Enjoy your specimen and
have a
great lifetime.

photos of my 10.7 gram collection piece, showing two
lithologies. There are many chondrules, I think H4
chondrite.

Mike, very beautifull material. I cant remember any other meteorite
Hi everyone.
I finally got around to posting my new Allende I got
in my Smithsonian exchange on my website, as well as a
1.6 kilogram Suizhou stone I got today from China,
along with the Zunhua pieces.
Both the stones still have dirt imbedded in the crust
from impact 39 and and 23 years later! I
Mike,
You're not a fool. Quite the opposite. I was highly impressed by your
post.
You now have a indisputable anchor point that clearly marks you as the
good guy. Beyond that, there is no point trying to use rational
arguments with an irrational person.
Paul Swartz
Jerry, unfortunately it
Both are absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Dave

No problem, that is what this list is about, sharing
photos, stories, questions, whatever as long as
meteorites are the subject.
Today was such a nice day! I will be leaving for a
long meteorite hunt on Tuesday, so anyone with any
business with me, please let's wrap it up this
weekend.
Otherwise,
Great pieces Mikelooks like this last month has been a good one.
Hoping to get to Ensisheim or Saint Marie again this year...but not sure
yet.
And now a question Mike...or anyone else out there. Are there any
records of chondrite falls that were found many years after the actual
fall
Mike,
Fantastic specimen, fantastic note written by Dr. Clarke. What a
combination!
Congratulations!

WARNING JOKE AHEAD
Be prepared to be tempted to be offended... but resist the urge!
The following is ONLY a Joke:
In a message dated 5/2/2008 2:28:49 P.M. Central Daylight Time,
If this element is confirmed, even if it is 1:10^-12 ratio with thorium, I
suspect supernova would be the source.
These are found on earth and are not subject to quite so many cosmic rays
That they are found in thorium, an already heavy element seems to suggest this
may well be the case

Mike;
I think the allende and suizhue you posted are phenominal.And i am glad you
were able to make such a great trade with the smithsonian.Good luck.Thanks for
posting.
