Hi, "Randall," List,

    Wearily, to set the record straight:

1. I am not a dealer of meteorites. I buy'em;
I don't sell'em. I was at one time an antiques
dealer, but sold nothing as old as meteorites.

2. I did receive a List email from you with
an active running script in it. I don't know
what that script would have done, but I
didn't wait around to find out. Mostly, I
wondered how it could get past the five
programs that strip-search all emails before
they get to my door, but I don't expect you
to tell me your trade secrets.

3. I think that "members" who intentionally
post viral content to the List or to List members
off-list ought to be removed from the List.
Call me narrow-minded if you want to. Of
course, someone's computer can be infected
and send out bad stuff; that different. I don't
think that's what happened with you because
of #4 (below).

4. I later (that evening, after warning the
List) received a 4.53Mb email that pretended
to be from Bob Verrish but was really from
you. It went to where spooffy spam belongs:
Spooffy Spam Hell.

5. You can't be removed from the List by
sending the List an email that requests to
be removed. Go the Meteorite Central
website and unsubscribe yourself. That's
the only way to be removed from the List
and the only thing you could do that would
make anyone believe that's what you want.

6. Bon Voyage!

I just sent a e-mail to Actlabs in Canada requesting information on
thin sections with priority service. I hope to send them a 57 gram
specimen. I hope to get a response from them soon. Any valid
researcher desiring a thin section can contact me off list. I don't
know right now what the price will be for the thin section but it can
be purchased directly from Actlabs but through me. The meteorite is
fragil and is starting to oxidize in this humid weather and I want to
get it into research as soon as possible. I make no profit on this.

A dealer on the list has accused me of sending a virus, and has
requested that I be removed from the list. Don't bother. I request to
be removed, immediately. I've posted benign content on my blog, only
to find out it's been removed. What a rat's nest this place is and I'm
sick of it.

Adios,

Randall
