If you genuinely beleived your rhetoric <DIV></DIV>>that they <DIV></DIV>>are above all "scientific first" you would gladly offer every new <DIV></DIV>>meteorite <DIV></DIV>>that you find for free to the scientific community before offering <DIV></DIV>>them for <DIV></DIV>>sale and only sell them after the scientific community picked out <DIV></DIV>>the ones <DIV></DIV>>that have no scientific value. <DIV></DIV>>You are involved in meteorites because you are hoping to make money <DIV></DIV>>from <DIV></DIV>>them. No more, no less. Its money. And not because you want to find <DIV></DIV>>the <DIV></DIV>>answer to some great cosmic mystery of the universe. <DIV></DIV>>I dont like many of the activities that go on in the sahara desert <DIV></DIV>>any more <DIV></DIV>>than you do. But I do support the reasons behind them and we <DIV></DIV>>wouldent have <DIV></DIV>>as many meteorites found if everything had to be on the up and up <DIV></DIV>>100% like <DIV></DIV>>what you claim as your "ethics and scientific value" notions would <DIV></DIV>>indicate. <DIV></DIV>>So go back out into the sahara desert and find more meteorites the <DIV></DIV>>way that <DIV></DIV>>you run your meteorite business as per your business decisions. And <DIV></DIV>>let <DIV></DIV>>others involved in their own saharan meteorite business operate the <DIV></DIV>>way that <DIV></DIV>>they have decided to run their own business. At least everybody else <DIV></DIV>>is up <DIV></DIV>>front about how they do things and dont go around calling everybody <DIV></DIV>>else <DIV></DIV>>unethical because their business operation is not exactly the same <DIV></DIV>>as your <DIV></DIV>>business operation. <DIV></DIV>>Come to think of it, you dont have any ethics in the first place to <DIV></DIV>>give to <DIV></DIV>>some nomad to bury in the sahara desert. They all got thrown out <DIV></DIV>>somewhere <DIV></DIV>>between 50 cents and $12 a gram. <DIV></DIV>>In support of getting more meteorites into the scientific and <DIV></DIV>>collecting <DIV></DIV>>community <DIV></DIV>>DEAN <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>_________________________________________________________________________ <DIV></DIV>>Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at <DIV></DIV>>http://www.hotmail.com. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>_______________________________________________ <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list mailing list <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com <DIV></DIV>>http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list <DIV></DIV><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href="http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></p></html> Received on Fri 09 Mar 2001 09:25:10 AM PST |
