I was recently emailed this thread by a friend and though I should respond.

Let me say first off that i'm not looking for a fight or to turn this into
more drama on the list. I'm going to say my peace once and once only and not
post back on this subject.

I have not stolen meteorites from anyone, Mike - I HAVE however simply
dropped off the face of the meteorite world after Tucson. Ironically enough
Mike you are part of the reason for me doing this when you told me Habibi
and Aaronson are out to screw me over.

I have been increasingly frustrated with politics, untruths and other crap
in the meteorite community as of late. Things all came to a head after
tucson when I would hear from Mr. Y that Mr. X was saying something bad
about me and then hearing from someone else that Mr. Y was telling everyone
not to sell to me. Some people have been claiming that prices I'm being
quoted are horribly inflated - others have said my best sources are out to
pork me. Those who know me know that I have spent some time and effort
building up a fairly descent collection and at this point I just simply dont
know what to do anymore, or who I can trust.

I was (only halfway) joking when I talked to Blaine Reed on the phone the
other day when I told him that if I found out that he was porking me too I
would just put my entire collection up on ebay in a single no reserve sale.
(I've known Blaine since I was about 13). No worries though Blaine is a
trustworthy guy.

So long story short. I'm not dead. I'm not planning on running off with a
bunch of space rocks and hoarding them all to myself. Ive just been
frustrated - and probably in retrospect didn't handle the situation in the
best way possible. Ive been talking with some close friends as of late with
regards to what they think I should do and if I have something outstanding
with you I will take care of it shortly.

Meteorites has first and foremost been a passion of mine. ever since i was a
kid I wanted to be an astronaut. When I realize that wasn't a likely job
prospect I turned to meteorites to bring a little bit of space down to earth
to me. Unfortunatly the commercial side of meteorites and all the
backstabbing and other BS that goes along with it has taken a bit of the
magic out of this collectors passion.
