Come on. Enough is enough. We've received some sad news today, at least give
everyone 24 hours to reflect on great moments and pay respect to a great
person.

Eric is a great guy, I think he did a good thing by getting it and Im sure
he would be a capable host for the HOF. I have spoken with him many times
and have enjoyed our discussions.
I do think that a non profit type person/group should own/run the HOF
however as I think that something of this would need to be done by a group
that has no profit interests involved.
I hope Eric does not take this personal, but I think a meteorite dealer
should not be the actual owner of the HOF.
The IMCA, in my opinion, would be the best bet for an outlook of legitimacy
in the community.
