[meteorite-list] NWAs; a little more civil discussion, please

[E.P. Grondine]

Hi all - 

We see adds for unclassified NWAs by the kilo. Clearly the Moroccans would like to be able to directly sell unclassified NWAs mentioning possible classes. 

I am pretty certain that when finders come in with stones for them, they have to make eyeball determinations. 

Can not some reasonable wording be found, or some new word or term, like "unclassified possible" be come up with? Something that would be clear?

And could there be some kind of IMCA guarantee that is the "possible" turns out to be "impossible", there be some kind of regular refund/exchange mechanism set in place?

In other words, some kind of rules so that Moroccan middlemen could be recognized by the IMCA?

Can some reasonable solution be found?

Could I ask for a little more civiliaty in this discussion?
