Hello Stephen and list,

Stephen wrote "Although I do agree that it is the duty of the hobby/scien=
ce to promote the study and enjoyment of meteorites to the general public=
, this is a job that should not be the sole province of dealers. Collec=
tors must be willing to promote too. Since the study and collecting of m=
eteorites is related to astronomy (another "graying" hobby), I have taken=
 the lead within the astronomy club that I belong to promote and educate =
the public, especially the children, about astronomy and about meteorites=
."

I agree it is not just the job, nor is it just in the interest of dealers=
 to expand the interest of meteorites. Good luck with your outreach effo=
rts. Look for a small package in the mail from me.
