First, the list has always been self policing. In the old days I believe it was a bit more so. When we had people like you did, scold scollars who's input on the list was well respected, list members wouldn't mince words with them. I've noticed that you like to challenge people when ever they don't post something to your liking but yet you have the arrogance to challenge me for the same. It boils down to two things. First respect for the people who might have different views than Mike's and second, keeping the posts more on topic as the list rules state. I personally like to see people of all walks of life be on this list. I respect Mike for the most part but any political or religious comments don't belong on a list that is _suppose_ to be about meteorites. While I agree with a number of things Mike said, posting such comments just fuel the fire for others who have different beliefs and can start and off topic fight like this one. If Mike is allowed to post off topic on a senstive area then there is no reason that I can't call him on it as I felt it was out of place here. While you and Mike are being insenstive about others believes (and again this is all off topic) and don' t see harm, I have received a number of emails thanking me for my post. Go back to stiffing people on your magazine sales and telling scollars to poliltely shut up. I'd like to start and off topic post to see how many people are still waiting on you to send them their printed magazine they paid for. --AL Mitterling ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Wichman" <eric at meteoritesusa.com> To: <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Monday, May 23, 2011 5:07 AM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Bigfoot and the "Nakhla Dog" - what do they havein common? > LOL Now now boys...
