I am not pulling a Clinton on you when I say, I am not, nor have I ever been, Proud Tom. I am the fortunate benefactor of his trust in announcing the opening of his web sites. I suspect this honor was granted me because I don't want his identity known, as I consider his anonymity part of the humor of the phenomenon of Proud Tom. I believe he does not post directly to the list because, I am told, emails can be traced, at least to a limited geographic locale of origin. That way, someone could make a very well educated guess as to his identity. Since I have a stake in seeing his identity remains hidden, he, apparently, has chosen to trust me to relay announcements of new web sites. (Too bad, John, I would have liked to fake you out for a free dinner! A wise move on your part to forewarn the capacious Jensen Brothers!) It will be interesting to see if Proud Tom "comes out of the closet" in Tucson - but I, for one, hope his identity remains a mystery to the meteorite community for all time. Best wishes, Michael -- When Jesus said "Love your enemies" I think he probably meant don't kill them.
