Richard, Anne, List,
This has a lot of us smoking right now. I am pressing send anyway here.
Sorry.
The truly sad thing about this is that Anne herself is the one who claimed
in an earlier email that Tony did in fact have some of NWA 5363 already.
She went on to tell us all to be patient.

WRONG:
I did say that a piece of NWA 6292 had been sent to Dr. Irving shortly
after the Ensisheim Show.
Pieces of NWA 5363 were promised to him from various sources, but never
received by him. However I now have a firm promise from a very serious dealer
who will mail a slice on Monday.
Carl, you have some NWA 5363, why don't you help sciences, and offer a
piece for study?
 
And for the newcomers, who are not yet aware of the problem, here it is:
NWA 5400 is a very unusual brachinite and the only way to know definitely
if any other brachinite is truly, really paired with it is by doing an
Oxygen-Isotope study. Such extreme measure is rarely needed but it certainly is in
this case.
 
And yes, you do have to be patient until it is done.There is no other way.
It is a long complex process, we are lucky that Dr. Irving is willing to do
that study and to compare the results for all those pieces. Now we must give
him whatever amount of time he needs, and yes, wait until it is done.

This after she was made fully aware that Dr Jambon as a qualified
scientist, had already confirmed the pairing with NWA 5400.
This is his exact quote " NWA 5363 is undoubtedly paired with NWA 5400"
In the same email Dr. Jambon went on to say that;
" I have been insulted.
My Moroccan partners have been insulted too.
We all wait for apology".
Although at this time I think he might have been referring to Greg.
Unless I missed it. Nobody has yet offered any kind of apology or even an
explanation of why they would insult him.
I can't help but wonder why a board member of the IMCA would continue to
insult a very important scientist in our field?
It seems to me an IMCA board member would try to do all they can to keep
from alienating and insulting our scientists.
Anne what if some day the IMCA needs a favor from Dr. Jambon? Did you ever
think of that?
Sorry Anne but, you are way out of line here because I personally made sure
you got a copy of Dr. Jambons email to this list.
Look it up yourself in archives from June 23rd, 2010 in an email posted by
Zelimer Gabelica with the subject; Pairings to NWA 5400.
Or I can email it to you again if you'd like.
As far as I am concerned this matter has been settled since that email date
and I would like to offer Dr. Jambon my personal apologies for not asking
Anne to cool her guns until now.
Anne please cool your guns and respect Dr. Jambon's work.
It has been stated all along that all of this material originated from
Mbarek. There was really no reason to believe it was ever anything but paired.
Carl
