Re: [meteorite-list] List Members, what's your job ?
Today is my 77th year. I guess I have done more things and have had more fun in life than can be described in this short message. I'm supposed to be retired, but I just can't stop. I have to college degrees in Geology and chemistry. I've sold all the corporations I owned. My patents (12) provided me an income before they expired and now I spend my time on Meteorite restoration research and Paleontological restoration adhesives. My world wide traveling has slowed and I find my wine cellar is in need of restocking. But I hold up my glass to all of you (with a smile on my face) as you are caught up in the crazy wonderful world of meteorites - Bill Mason III rusty -Original Message- From: meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com [mailto:meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com] On Behalf Of csac...@triad.rr.com Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2009 8:35 AM To: André Knöfel; MeteoriteList Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] List Members, what's your job ?

Re: [meteorite-list] List Members, what's your job ? (Robert Williamson)
I'm retired from General Motors of Canada Ltd. after thrity years of six and seven days a week three shifts. Would still be there but the doc told me to get out when I can. I love hiking and camping, Geocaching. I purchased textbooks on meteorites due to my interest in Astronomy. I'm also interested in history, particularly ancient history. Built a small collection of ancient Greek and Roman coins and artifacts, and American and Canadian silver. Living on a lot less income now, and that has forced me to stop buying meteorites and coins, and I'm still supporting one teenager in his hockey teams. But at least I got some good ones, like Allende, Murchison, NWA 482 and Zagami and others like some Olivine Diogenites and nickle-irons. And it is all thanks to dealers who are members in this group. My sincere thanks guys. You helped my family and me to touch the stars. Michael Farmer, Dean Bessey, the Hupes, Rob Wesel, Erik Twelker and others here. Many thanks to you all.

Hello list members, At 41, I'm a a bank office director. I studied phisics, but bank pays a great income... I reached meteoritics as a branch of my astronomy interest since a boy. Last year found a new meteorite at Sahara while exploring with a meteorite friend (J.Vicente Casado), so we are very busy clasifiying the 140 pieces we found. Now, apart of a proud owner of a observatory, I'm also a proud owner of a meteorite collection. I'm Married and we have two sons who loves space and meteorites. And Mike (Farmer), don't worry, we are here, online, waiting for your notices about your finds in Texas, if you need any help from listees, I'm sure we will help you. You all, listees near Texas, make me grow a sane envy. Have a great weekend hunting for meteorites !!

Wow, new meteorite fall making worldwide news, this meteorite list ignores it. At least nothing changes Michael farmer Let's see, what do we know from the list about the new fall? 1) It's a meteorite, not satellite debris. 2) Ron DiIulio and Preston Star found the first two pieces. 3) Moritz Karl and company found a piece that Mike Farmer got to hold in the photograph. 4) Greg Hupe is going to Texas on Friday. 5) Reuben Garcia is headed for Texas now and has invited everyone to go along. 6) Eric Wichman is having a big sale to raise money to go to Texas. 7) The initial news reports were typically poor. That doesn't strike me as being ignored. Perhaps we should all just babble away, speculating about what might happen or be found out there in the Lone Star State. Perhaps more accolades are in order. Hooray Mike! Hooray Moritz! Hooray Robert! Hooray Shauna! Out of respect, I suggest we all stop posting to the list, except for our excited Texas babbling, until we get the all-clear.

Hi, I run my own industrial hygiene consulting company. We conduct surveys for manufacturing facilities, chemical companies, etc. Surveys include monitoring for air contaminants, noise and other agents in the occupational setting. I am a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) and Certified Safety Professional (CSP) and have graduate degrees - one in Physical Chemistry and the other in Environmental Health Science. Prior to starting up my own company, I was director of industrial hygiene for a large insurance company for 12 years before it went bankrupt. At that point, I started my own company. I became interested in collecting meteorites via another hobby of mine - collecting autographs of scientists. It's only been about two years since I started collecting, but I already have a peer-reviewed publication involving the history of meteorites that was published in Notes Records of the Royal Society in 2007. I am particularly interested in historic meteorite specimens and writing about them. That about sums it up!

I rarely reply to anything, but I will reply to this to say that I respectfully but strongly disagree with Michael.

Michael recognizes this with his meteorite friends page, but this is better. I usually quickly delete Met List stuff (most of it tends to 'bid on my auctions'') but I read and saved all of these.

I am a meteorite dealer. That's how I make my living. Occasionally I take on a bit of work in my hobby-job as a mining exploration geologist. That was my career at one time. I did that for 13 years and was a lawyer for another 15 years after that--I am 59 now. I don't practice law any more, but when I did it tended to be natural resource mega-cases. I am happily married for 30 years with two very smart sons--one a geologist and one a physicist. (They were two little guys holding meteorites on Paul and Jim's meteorite kids web page ages ago.) I love geology and thinking about the Earth . . . and trying to understand it. Meteorites play a part, of course-- always a spark for a thought, an idea . . .
