Re: [meteorite-list] anyone know Steven Curry?
Well, I always learn something new from this group! No wonder this situation smells bad. But wait, there's more! It is not just Lunar meteorites that this wing-nut (as in Russel T Wing) claims to have found, but also a plethora of Martian meteorites! Here are some of these rare finds: http://tinyurl.com/2753g7t I wonder what the next 'meteorism' will be? Perhaps a living Lunar or Martian 'spidy' inside the 'meteorite'? Sound familiar?

Re: [meteorite-list] anyone know Steven Curry?
Yes, I remember spidy. Wasn't that the Frass meteorite that Micro Mike discovered while living in a cave on the Los Alamos National Laboratory property? I think he called it a Spidy instead of a spider because it only had 7 legs instead of 8 therefor it must be extraterrestrial. I noticed his websites are down. I imagine he has either been institutionalized or the batteries ran out in his cave. Here is an article about Micro Mike who finally got noticed by the media: http://www.abqjournal.com/north/262036north_news11-21-04.htm Here is the website of another self-proclaimed spokesperson for all of us in involved in meteorites called Boggy Creek: http://www.bccmeteorites.com/ Steve Curry, our latest self-proclaimed spokesperson, will be presenting his facts at the Montrose Library on November 8th, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm.

[meteorite-list] Micro Mike Text
Here is the text if the link doesn't work: Sunday, November 21, 2004 Los Alamos Hermit Booted Off Lab Property Spreads His Theories of the Cosmos By Adam Rankin Journal Staff Writer LOS ALAMOS— Roy Michael Moore, aka the Los Alamos caveman, dropped out of the mainstream almost a decade ago, and though he has been largely ignored for the four years he's peddled his cosmological theories here, he is a long way from giving up on making the sale. Discovered living in a cave on Oct. 13 in a deep canyon on U.S. Department of Energy property at Los Alamos National Laboratory, the 56-year-old Moore is finally gaining the attention he's been seeking for years. Someone from Albuquerque wants to film a documentary about him and a brief story about his discovery appeared on Wired magazine online. A Vietnam veteran who spent four years playing clarinet in a Marine Corps band in the late 1960s, Moore is hoping to shift the focus from himself and his cave dwelling to his life's work. I would sacrifice everything I own to get my story out, he said. It was in 1996 that the former computer programmer and network manager sold all his possessions, abandoned his Amarillo, Texas, computer business and devoted all his energy to thinking deep thoughts. I served my time until my kids left home. When they left, I felt I had no more responsibilities, he said. Moore divorced when his oldest daughter, now 26, was 8 years-old and his son was about 6. I didn't know a thing about business or making money, even though his company employed 25 at one time and he used to bill $100 an hour for programing the computers he built and sold, he said. Dissatisfied with computers, Moore said he felt he had bigger, more important problems to work on. So, the father of two, who calls himself Micro Mike because the nickname puts him in the context of the broader universe, started walking and thinking. Normal life is a rat race, and as far as I can tell, the rats are winning, he said. Besides, he said, I never tried to be normal in my life; it is just another word for average to me and I want to be above average. At first, he walked around Amarillo, thinking about the cosmos, working through Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. Then, he headed to Socorro, where he sought out sky watchers at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, hoping he could discuss the newly developed theory he dubbed the gravionic model. The theory ascribes energy and spirituality to gravity— the action-at-a-distance phenomenon that modern science has a hard time fully explaining. They said they didn't have a single cosmologist on staff, Moore said, still clearly disappointed. No takers there, he next traveled to Roswell, where for a short stint he gave talks on a what he claims is a bowling ball-size Martian meteorite he found while working as a cowboy on his great-aunt's ranch in northern Texas in 1971. In Roswell, Moore met Lee Weinland, an independent video producer from Los Alamos who was intrigued by Moore and his story about the meteorite and his claims that it held evidence of complex life on Mars. I never have been able to get any scientists to do any tests on it, Moore said. Weinland, who describes Moore as an eccentric genius, invited Moore to Los Alamos where the two cooperated to produce a short video on the meteorite and Moore's theories on its Martian origin. That's when Moore fell in love with Los Alamos, according to Weinland. He fits up here in a lot of ways, Weinland said of Moore. I believe Los Alamos is a town full of very common sense-challenged people and Micro Mike is one of them; very brilliant, but common sense challenged... he is no whackier than most of the physicists I know up here. So now Moore walks around Los Alamos and the Jemez Mountains. According to his figuring, he has logged more than 8,000 miles just walking and thinking. Most of my life, I was afraid to be alone, Moore said. But when I started working on my gravionic model, I had to be alone. Moore, who says he has many friends in Los Alamos who help him with food and clothes, gauges the difficulty of the problems he tackles by how far he walks before solving them— a process he says is aided by smoking marijuana. When Moore was discovered living in his cave, federal authorities also found 10 marijuana plants, each about 18 inches tall growing around the cave. I think the laws that prohibit (marijuana) are unconstitutional, because they infringe on his pursuit of happiness, Moore said. I should be allowed to use it to solve problems that help humanity, rather than be punished for it. Los Alamos, with its thick population of Ph.D.s working at the weapons laboratory, is a highly spiritual community and its great trail network is the perfect place for me,
[meteorite-list] (OT :-) The Real Caveman (Was: Micro Mike Text)
Hi Adam and All, ... Discovered living in a cave on Oct. 13 in a deep canyon ... With his supplies gone, Barber's condition is next to hopeless, when he discovers a cave at the top of a cliff. To his surprise he finds the interior fully equipped; in the bed there lies a dead man. He adopts the dead man's identity and lives in the cave. A period of deep happiness and extraordinary artistic productivity begins. He is soon visited by an Indian, George Ugly Mouth, who takes him for the dead man. He finds out that the dead man had been involved with a gang of outlaws, the Gresham brothers, whose return is only a matter of time. When they do finally come, Barber kills them in cold blood. In their saddle bags he finds a large amount of money. He leaves the cave and begins a new life as Thomas Effing in San Francisco; by investing the money wisely he soon becomes very rich. He leads a life of luxury, yet cannot enjoy it for fear of having his identity revealed by someone from the past. Feelings of guilt become so strong that he seeks oblivion in opium, women and gambling. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- Paul Auster, Moon Palace Chapter 5: Summary -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- Best wishes, Bernd __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] A Signed and Numbered Copy of The Art of Collecting Meteorites - (ad)
In a short time, someone hopefully will be interested in bidding and purchasing a First Edition copy (signed and numbered #498 of 500) of my book, The Art of Collecting Meteorites. I am thankful to Geoff Notkin for taking time out this week to retrieve the original book file and mailing a CD to me so I can pursue printing more copies when the last few I have soon sell out. Without his search, the book was forever lost. Imagine what help I had with this project! . Meteorite Man Geoff did the book's design, Meteorite Man Steve Arnold played a key role in its concept. Richard Norton wrote the foreword. Joel Schiff edited. Darryl Pitt inspired and shared his knowledge and photos. Tom Phillips donated images of his micro-work including the stunning cover. Others on this message board were key contributors. I will sign copy #499 for an eBay auction in a few months. I'll leave #500, the last to be signed and numbered, to be sold when all other copies are gone. It is still unclear if there will ever be more copies available or if the book will go out of print. But today, if anyone would enjoy having what some people consider special, please take a look at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=220689112129ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT Many thanks to all for your support and encouragement.

Re: [meteorite-list] Just Got Threatened by Steven Curry!!
Well I got an email too. Mr. Curry is reading our texts. Thus, he should know that we all spend a great deal of time helping others with meteorite identification and trying to make this hobby better. We are not paid to assist and have no vested interests in protecting lunar or martian meteorite collection values. How so? One cannot protect values because the amount/rarity of each fall is unique to itself. For example, If a huge amount of a fall was discover and sold, its price would be determined by market supply and demand. For example, NWA 869 would have been much more costly had there not been so much of it! And too the owner(s) of the fall can control the price by releasing the amount(s) to the market but he/they is/are the only one(s). Testing facilities and university professors do not attempt to control the market. The truth of the matter is they have been so eager to discover new finds, in the past they have tested for free. Testing in itself is an expensive undertaking because only one in a thousand samples sent in results in being meteoritic. With the popularity of Meteorite Men, the ratio has probably doubled or tripled and thus many universities have completely stopped testing due to a lack of funding in these lean times. Hopeful persons may get mad when a sample is returned and told it is not a meteorite. We as collectors get upset when persons ignore the experts and repetitively clog the system with wrongs. Perhaps setting back real classification work and limited budgets from months to years. Here is my suggestion to you, SC. Let other meteorite experts verify and classify your best suspect meteorite. If your meteorite claim cannot be independently verified it will never be recognized as genuine, never. There will always be a shadow over it. There is no conspiracy. If you have a meteorite, it can be independently verified overseas if you wish. But you must face facts too. If it is not a meteorite, accept that fact without false excuses. It if is an independently verified and classified meteorite then you can attempt to prove it has fossils, just let your steps be transparent so you can announce to the world without the suspect meteorite accusation. You have a whole list of meteorite dealers and collectors including Lunar and Martian experts that would be probably be willing to answer questions for you, one question at a time and one suspect meteorite at a time. Depending on your humility, all you have to do is ask (not demand, not argue). Remember that all the photos and web sites that persons use to try to self classify their found rocks were put there by the same experts that are instantly viewed as non-experts or dishonest when their suspect meteorite is reported to be or is dismissed as a wrong. It can't be both ways! Best, Ken Newton On Sun, Oct 31, 2010 at 5:05 PM, Count Deiro countde...@earthlink.net wrote: Stuart, Dennis, List...

[meteorite-list] AD: Worried about meteorite storage? I've got boxes galore!
Hello Meteorite Friends! I posted a nice selection of meteorite boxes on my website, ranging from small 1 x 2 x 0.75 clear acrylic boxes to 9.5 cubes to hold your large samples. All boxes are made from clear acrylic/styrene and can be sealed permanently if desired (as a service since I can't ship the solvent or you can get it done at most local plastics shops.). There is also an option to include a silicone elastomeric liner if you desire to prevent sliding around and scratching the box. The silicone doesn't outgas acetic acid or methanol, instead it is a platinum catalyzed product that retains a night tackiness. Two items that you'll want to include in your box are desiccant packets or small drying button and a humidity indicator. They are on order and should be available this week. I am also working on a slice holder that allows all of the surface of the slice to be viewed or even displayed with a rear illuminating light. It is a little different that the Membrane Box. Here's a little movie showing how my idea works, http://4-kats.homeip.net/auctionpics/MBoxes/slicebox.mp4 Hope you find this interesting and appropriate.
