A lot of things turn up (literally) in a freshly plowed field: = indian artifacts, glacial stones... One of Illinois' eight meteorites was = found that way (WOODBINE). I read enviously of the dry lakes when all I have about me is = plowed fields. It's nice to know you could find a meteorite in one. Sterling K.
