Hi list members!

I'm the seller "Basilicofresco". Yes, the bandwidth stealer!
First of all I wish to express my apologies to Jim Strope for the 
direct linking of the image of one Sikote Alin crater.
When I wrote the auction layout in Turbolister I direct linked the 
image in order to immediately see how well it fit.
On 5 December I read about the special discount on insertion fees and 
I hurriedly put the auction on ebay. I simply forgot to replace the url.

I did not ask the permission for three reasons: the image was 
copyright-free, I really don't need image hosting because I have my 
own website without any traffic limit and I did not realized I was 
still direct linking the image.

I don't read the meteorite-list and I corrected the problem as soon 
some collectors warned me. If Jim would have sent me a message I 
would immediately remove the direct link. I hope the extra traffic 
(about 5MB) didn't cause you any significant damage.

By the way, nice joke Jim. (what an ugly couple!)

bye,

  > Dave <
