Yes, you "great" meteorite guys out there.
I am watching (and I am sure that I am not the only one, the most of us real
collectors) are watching this discussions long long enough.

Even taking the risk, that some of my personal friends will break
friendship, I want to share my own opinion on this long discussed themes:

This list has been misused since (estimate) the last 2 or 3 years.

Facts and scientific reports lost value against hard bargains and personal
diffamations.

I am sure, taking speech for many of the collecting community, that all this
hate tirades did not help anyone - nor collectors, nor hunters or dealers.
What the hell is this leading to ???

Is this a profit-theme-list or is it, as it was in the past - a place for
sharing the experience of all what has to do with this matter.

For me, I am not interested to go with the loudest dealers, quality and
honesty counts - and that is my first priority.

And, again even risking friendships, this would not help to increase the
market, especially the European Market, a very potential market for the
future.

Think it over and calm down to the meteorite roots
(or leave it)

sorry (for the members that will hate me in future),
but I wanted to represent a view of the collectors interests.

cheers from Austria,

a nation with one of the most important founders of meteoritical science,
owning one of the most important historical meteorite collections in the
whole wide world, and only a handful of REAL meteorite enthusiasts,

Christian
