>A call was put out for any government agencies or
other organizations that could help and the help came
everything from trained search-and-rescue teams to Boy
Scout troops. A logical choice was the Bureau of Land
Management's firefighters, who are normally only hired
during the summer fire season. They're physical people
experienced at working outdoors, and those who didn't
have other commitments during the
>"offseason" could be hired to search for debris.

Considering many of the US meteorite collectors are
good at doing off-road searches, did anyone from the
List participate?
