[meteorite-list] the end,it has to be this time

[John Gwilliam]

Evening All,
I've come out of my own retirement to make a comment here.

I wish you the best of luck Steve. After reading your post, I 
reflected back on all that has transpired over the years and I have 
to admit I laughed out loud. You brought something to this List that 
no one else could have.  I can't define it or put a label on it, but 
you've made it interesting, that's for sure. Thanks for the laugh.

Best Regards,
John Gwilliam
