Kevin,

You're an ASS !=20
I bet you wish you had the balls and the cash to try to do what Mike =
Farmer did. Nobody else went there... did they ?
He's going to come back with a measily 14 gram fragment and you have the =
audacity to publicly criticize that.
Whats next ? Are you going to talk shit about Bob Haag when he left =
Nigeria with his Zagami?
Most of us praise Mike's efforts. If it wasnt for him we wouldnt be =
seeing alot of great meteorites on the market.

Wake up dude , Mike Farmer is the true meteorite hunter!!

  A couple of items about Mike Farmer's journey:

  1. All "meteorites are deemed owned by the Geological Survey of India, =
without compensation." Adam Hupe tells me that he didn't visit India for =
a recovery effort because he couldn't obtain a permit. It is Mike's =
responsibility to be aware of local law. Mike is apparently about to =
leave India with a 14 gram fragment obtained without a permit.

  If the members of this list endorse this legally questionable action, =
I want to state that I do not.

  2. Mike wrote that "liberal, if not quite true use of the word =
"University"" allowed him access to the recovered fragments.

  Shades of Ron Farrell (Bethany Science) a "Yale Professor" when =
"necessary."=20

  Meteorite recovery where "the ends justify the means" shines a very =
dim light on the hobby at an already very dark time.

  What would Harvey do?
