Very impressive accomplishment given how audacious the landing
sequence was! I was surprised how quickly they got that low
resolution first image (complete with landing dust on the
lens). Hats off to the NASA/JPL team! --Rob

These videos were created in collaboration with Tomasz Jacubowski.
Inspired by an animated GIF of a chondrule he had posted, I approached him
with the idea of creating videos of the various chondrule types and their
appearance as a polarizing filter is rotated every 10 degrees from 0 to 360
What a hoot!
Yinan Wang's coherent explanation of auction house operations should satisfy
the complaints of any potential seller, or buyer. I can add to his descriptions
by mentioning consignor's can set a minimum to protect themselves in most
situations. That being the case,the auction
Aloha,
This is a book I cannot finish. Each page immerses you in the history and
science of the Henbury craters and meteorite. Photographs, letters, hand drawn
maps and other documents adorn the heavy satin finish pages printed in full
color. My favorite is a flyer circa 1934 announcing a 401g
etting hit with all kinds of charges, do the math and buy or not.
Auction houses hit you with hidden or poorly explained charges, photo fees,
storage fees, insurance fees, catalog fees, seller commission, shipping and
packing charges, handling fees, and in the end they get it all, sort of like a
Auction houses are like used car salesman..they prefer to do business
with the uninformed and emotionally driven buyer. I know because I
earned my living in both fields of endeavor.
I couldn't agree more with this statement. I think saving the buyer a
potential 40% is a good thing. Despite
Hi List,

WOW! A big Congratulations to all of the folks at NASA and JPL for a job
EXTREMELY well done! Plus, this photo is the icing on the cake! I look
forward to hearing about, and seeing all that Curiosity is discovers on her

And a big thanks to Ron Baalke for these wonderful update
Dear Greg and List Members,
The reality is:
There may be about a dozen dealers that realize this type
income. It would be extremely difficult in this economy to manage any
sort of meaningful income like you suggest year after year. A

Hi All,
I just wanted to thank everyone who commented on the puppies off and on
List. I would bet that if any of you had come across the pups that you
would have helped them too.
Thanks,
