Hello Tom,
        After careful consideration, I have decided to offer my two prize
breeders in return for the pick of the litter each produces. Please choose
female specimens carefully for maximum quality of offspring. One is a
fine 15Lb. Gibeon and the other is an exquisite 36g Sikhote-Alin. You can
see these fine specimens via the URL link below.

    If possible, perhaps a member or two of the community at large
could suggest the finest quality femenin specimens possible for
pairing these fine examples of meteorite masculinity and share them
with us.
        Best wishes, Michael
NOTE: the last time such a program was took place, at least one member
of the list fell prey to the ol' western trap of polarization. In this view
of reality, the universe is viewed as a set of opposites - pairs in actual
opposition to one another, rather than sets of complimentary elements
which fulfil one another (as in the yin/yang concept). Therefore, the
physical is seen as the opposite of spiritual, and sex, being the base
in creating the physical, is seen as the embodiment of the physical
and, therefore, the absolute opposite of spiritual - ie, sinful.
        We are just having a bit of fun here, so, if you hold such a
perspective, please delete future posts with "Meteorite Propagation"
in the Subject Box and do not visit above photos.
