Hello Peter,

You've well established that you find the community lacking in
credibility and credential - so why not simply excuse yourself from
the company of such and go find an "expert" whose credibility you DO
respect? Why bring it to such a group of ignorant "lameoids" in the
first place?

I'm just curious what your goal is here: is it to prove something is
or isn't a meteorite through the highest/loudest word-count, or are
you attempting to establish their lack of credibility through same?
Some point I'm missing altogether?

It would clearly be counterintuitive to place any value on suggested
resources from these unwashed heathens, so just a straight Google
search for "meteorite labs" would turn up dozens of potential
less-ignoramooses all across the United States.

Good look with your stone!
