Re: Fw: Meteorite "worth"

<< 	"Debating" who is "right" or "wrong" is futile - apples, oranges, etc.
 One "argument" is as "valid" as the next. It seems to me y'all ar
 engaged in a sophmoric argument centered on semantics, but, if it
 tickles you, go for it, I can always delete.

Hmmm. I didn't think there were too many semantics flyin' about, just 
interesting and differing points of view. As long as things don't get 
personal and insulting I enjoy all this to-ing and fro-ing, it makes me 
re-assess my position and put myself in someone else's shoes. 

And it makes me appreciate my humble collection even more too: my little 
Holbrook might look like a black M&M, but it's *my* black M&M, and sits in 
the same box as *my* Canyon Diablo, *my* Gibeon and *my* tektites. even 
though some of the people on this List would probably look upon them as very 
minor specimens they all mean a lot to me - sniff! - and I can't see the day 
when I'll be able to afford any better ones. That just makes it even 
intriguing following these discussions between more succesful and affluent 
collectors who share my passion for starstones. Makes me realise we all can 
have stars in our eyes sometimes.

Personally I don't like deleting like that. I worry about missing words of 
wisdom from people on the List with waaaaaaay more experience than me. But 
hey... I'm easily tickled... :-)

Best wishes from a rain-lashed northern England,

Stu
