[meteorite-list] Holding meteorites for pictures

Well, Floyd, wouldn't it be better to preserve fraudulent fingerprints 
rather than wear gloves ???   Or did I misunderstand your point?

Hello and good day from sunny Parker, Colorado, USA

I was looking at the ebay listing of one of the list members that I know and 
I had a thought.
That alone is scary. Anyway, the meteorite sample that was for sale was 
pictured.
What I noticed was how well I could see the finger prints, when he was 
holding the sample.
I went through his listings and determined that if I wanted to, I could 
obtain a full set if his fingerprints.
This I thought was concerning enough to bring to all on the list.
If one was inclined to fake the Identification of someone, it would be nice 
to have a set of fingerprints.
Easy to prevent, wear gloves.

Best to all,
Floyd "Griff" Griffith
