[meteorite-list] RE: New Lucerne discovery -- historical info first

[joseph_town at att.net]

It's a shame when a group of smug people become so cut off from the general population as to think they can dictate thought policy. Rock the boat and you're a heckler. Question the IMCA for instance. No dissent is acceptable. Do we really want this list to end up like the pathetic IMCA list? I cherish every small minded opinion expressed here no matter how WELL it's stated ;)
