Jim's currant auction i= s a great value and had I not already had the thin section I would seriou= sly consider bidding. NWA998 through Schoner's Polarview and my microscope http://www.meteoritearticles.com/files/NWA998ts.JPG NWA998 using only Schoner's Polarview http://www.meteoritearticles.com/files/NWA998polarview.JPG Note: Photos were taken through my camera (Nikon 990) but not touched up. The photo using only the Polarview was the first time I had tried to use = it by itself and was surprized how great it turned out. I don't have any = good light inside my house so I took it outdoors and was holding it up fu= nny trying to get the camera under it. This attracted the attention of so= me of the neighborhood kids. They ran across ot my porch and asked, "What= are you taking a photo of?" (I buy the neighborhood kids ice cream from = time to time if they agree to leave the rocks outside my door alone...so = they always look to see what I am up to). "A Mars rock." I calmly answered. "Really" One of them replied. "No Way!" declared another. Kids being kids, one shoved one of the others and was quickly insulted. "= Your a Mars rocks!" "No you are!" Then they ran off....perhaps to bother = another neighbor in hopes of getting free ice cream. Anyway, my point in this story is that the kids saw the Mars rock as not = believable. Something made up. Unreal or at the best surreal. Much like o= ut currant "Dealer Refund" string. So to the person asking for a refund f= rom Steve Arnold. You my friend, are a Mars rock.
