No, I'm refering to the auction that you run all the time right now. It is
great that you were able to sell the bulk of your collection for so much but
I'm refering to the ridiculous auctions that you continue to run. Exactly
what publicity are you trying to go for here? That you have a load of stuff
that nobody wants? Man, wish I could get a tax write off for being a fool.
Also, what does this have to do with your coin sales?

Oh... you are refering to my Meteorite Collection. 90% of that was
sold in July of 2000 for $2.3 Million! The continued Ebay auctions for the
remainder is for continued publicity (perhaps a new collector with "deep
pockets" will
enter the market) AND for the tax write off. We made a substancial donation
this year
to a major University... again for the write off. You do understand "write
off"??? If not
a "write off" is an expense that is directly aplyable as a deduction to
profits.

  Hey! I charge for this, MC
