Someone (either you or your post office) made a mistake when weighing the package - it's quite simple when you stop and THINK about it!!!" I did not realize I posted 5+ dumb trivia posts every day to the list ! But, I guess Jim is the authority here, so I apologize to Art for the wasted bandwidth and, so I don't irritate Jim, I will not post to the list any more. P.S. I have no intentions of not posting to the list unless someone important tells me to stop. P.S.S. Jim, Do me a favor, Block me. : ) Thanks, Tom Peregrineflier <>< The proudest member of the IMCA 6168 ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Sullivan <runtime1972_at_hotmail.com> To: <knudson911_at_frontiernet.net>; <meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Saturday, July 19, 2003 1:49 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] OT, Please help me, shipping > << Hello List, can some one help me, I am so confused!!!!!!!!
