The statement I make is that when science tells you
that it is not a meteorite, all the graphs, and
websites you build will not make it a meteorite.
Do you have any idea how many people contact me with
"Million Dollar Meteorites", none of which usually
turn out to be meteorites. The fact that I refuse to
pay them a penny does not dissuade them from believing
that the rocks are just that, rocks.
