[meteorite-list] HupDes' find Chromites?

[Norm Lehrman]

All,

We shouldn't miss the really big picture here.  Congratulatiuons to all involved 
for a truly positive article.  Collectors/dealers have a symbiotic relationship 
with academics/scientists!  We on this list understand that, but this may be the 
first journalist in history to get it right.  Generally we are selfish 
blood-sucking leeches that deprive the scientific community of crucial research 
material while driving prices out of the reach of all legitimate institutions.  
Too often they ignore the fact that a specimen of every single classified 
meteorite is now,  without charge, in the hands of the classifying institution 
for further research .  


My immediate reaction was to send the author an email expressing huge 
satisfaction in the accuracy and balanced perspective of the article (which I 
did).  I can't recall seeing anything close to this.  Way to go Adam and Greg!  
True ambassadors of our community.

The misspelling doesn't bother me much.

I only wish that Dr. Scott Kuehner had been mentioned because he is the 
Micro-probe operator and research scientist who always makes his laboratory and 
skills available to us at the University of Washington. He is an intricate part 
of the team!  He is one of the very important, highly-skilled, background team 
players that makes things happen.

Kind Regards,

I feel bad for Adam and Greg. Wouldn't have been a bad article if the
reporter had his spellings right.
