[meteorite-list] Most expensive meteorites!

[Ed Majden]

	This confirms my impression of collectors!  They are NUTS!  I don't  
single out meteorite collectors but all collectors.  Let us look at  
art as an example.  If a painting by a famous artist sells for big  
bucks and later it turns out to be a fake it is nearly worthless  
again.  It has nothing to do with the quality of the painting but who  
actually is the so called famous painter.  The Ottawa art community,  
government, if I recall correctly paid big bucks for three stripes  
painted on a couple of sheets of plywood.  Several people said they  
would duplicate this so called famous painting at a fraction of the  
cost, but there were no takers.  Collectors and their vanity proves  
they are all NUTS!  I have something you don't have!  ;-)  Meteorites  
should be about what they do for science and Not scarcity!
