[meteorite-list] Not and Idea for list to think about - Thanks for the feedback!

[Ed Deckert]

Gary,

I have not met either Paul or Jim, but I would like to.  I have gotten much 
help from Paul with respect to my selling meteorites to raise money for my 
astronomy club.  Paul gave me outstanding advice that I would have been glad 
to pay for, had he asked me.  In fact, someone else might have been 
expecting to receive something back in the form of a consulting fee. 
Detailed emails take time to write.  Paul and I exchanged many emails over 
several weeks, with Paul's being full of sage advice and other information.

As a result of Paul's sharing of his expertise, I am well on my way to being 
successful in my endeavor.  I have also received much help and cooperation 
from many other list members.  I doubt that I can ever repay these folks for 
their kindness.  Please do not look for negative aspects in the people on 
this list.

Gary, please do not take this as a personal attack back at you.  It is 
nothing of the sort.  Maybe some of the emails going back and forth 
regarding either a shady deal, or someone's business ethics have given you 
the impression that the list members are only out to make as money as they 
can for themselves.  It has been my experience that this is far from the 
truth.

Well, as Mr. Roarke used to say on Fantasy Island:  Smiles everybody, 
smiles!

Ed
