1. You know more then well I was told it was Mifflin. I FULLY REFUNDED EVERYONE. Case closed. YOU can "shove off" I had several still not return material to me even though they were refunded..., including Mike Cottingham, and John Helm.

2. I spent several thousand of my money to try to open the museum. It failed. What can I say? I tried... Again, you can "shove off"
3. I have returned EVERYTHING donated minus one person who I have talked to about it. YOU did nothing yet run your mouth... again, "shove off...

4. WHAT I DID/DO DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT THAT YOU SELLING ILLEGALLY EXPORTED MATERIAL AND KNOW AS MUCH!!! I didnt know about the mifflin, you know the laws about this, and choose to ignore it!

your comments are pathetic. YOU are breaking international laws, and are an IMCA member to boot... Where is the IMCA right now when you are selling ILLEGALLY EXPORTED METEORITES? What are they going to do with you breaking numerous IMCA rules? ANYONE from the IMCA care to comment or will they remain quite as that usually do when one of the good ol boys break the rules?

Hello Greg,
The gall you must have to pass on thousands of dollars of fake
material, take donations for a good cause, flake on the cause (but
keep many of the donations) and then rag on me for selling *accurately
described material*...just shove off.  You've done more harm to this
community on your own than most others have been able to manage in the
past fifteen years.
Jason



I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time.

>>> From my understanding, meteorites that fell or are found after 1885 in India would be forwarded to the Government Geological Museum which would take over possession of the meteorite? If so, how is Katol exempt from this, or was Katol sold by the Museum? For those who have gotten some of this meteorite fall, will their meteorites come with export papers like how Canadian falls are handled?
