Hi Thaddeus,

what are your suggestions to improve those circumstances?

For me personally, it would be interesting, how many of the list members
opine, that meteorites shouldn?t be objects of commerce.

Can somebody set up a poll?

Martin

List,
Do we need Franklin Mint-esque coins to hype the insuperable wonder of
actual meteoritic material free of made-to-order home shopping network (no
trademark) gimmick?
These rank amongst the greatest achievements of Mike Farmer, capitalist of
little self-control and imagination. Give us rocks, and that's it: you sell
rocks. Collectors can become humorously obsessive when all reference to our
target interests are accepted. Coins will distract from oxidation,
reduction, recrystallization,?and chondrules.
