Hello List, I was thinking (yes it hurt!) When people on ebay ignore the
information given to them by the meteorite collecting public, that their
item is not a meteorite, can they get in legal trouble?
    Here is what I was thinking;
   Instead of letting some poor unexpecting person from getting ripped off,
we as meteorite collectors ought to have a $ pool to buy these meteorwrongs
after they refuse to remove the auction. After we receive it and prove it to
be a fake, we can do what ever it would take to get our money back in time
for the purchase of the next fake. We sure have enough expert witnesses on
the list.
  Can this be done?
Thanks, Tom
