All,

Apparently I was mistaken in my belief that Dr. Nininger was collecting
meteorites without permission. Thank you to those who pointed out my error.
Now I feel better, actually, since my mistaken belief that the good Doctor
was a poacher marred my otherwise positive thoughts about him.

Still, I stand by my other statements. Sure, Meteor Crater would make a KICK
ASS National Monument, if it were given the necessary resources. But since
the NPS doesn't have the resources but MCE does, I say leave well enough
alone for now. And I think you do have to give MCE some credit. It may be a
"tourist trap," but it's the classiest one I've ever seen.

Nevertheless, I for one would LOVE to come along on a "Rabbit Hunt" out that
way sometime. Anyone feel like organizing?

"Shhhhhhh... Be vewy, vewr qwiet... I'm hunting 'wabbits'!
hehehehehehehehehe!"
"Wabbit Season!"
"Meteowite Season!"
"Wabbit Season!"
"Meteowite Season!"
"Wabbit Season!"
"Meteowite Season!"
