>Hi Ingo,
>You are right, the message was perhaps too strong.
>I probably would take one or two words from it, now.
>Patience.
>But I still remember the insults that I received when the discussion was

>Many of this so-called "meteorite hunters" are not far from criminals (at
>least from a moral perspective), simply taking advantage of the absence of
>specific legislation in most of the countries, and people`s naivety. Call
>it enterpreneurs attitude, if you prefer.
>Some of them were selling hamburguers, or plumbing, before entering into
>their new "scientific" activity...
>I am sorry if I do not simpatize with them.
>I must add that obviously SOME of them too are great people, with an honest
>interest and real knowledge on the subject.
>Those would have much more to say in list than the usual "stars".
>Regards.
