Mike,
What does it matter if it is a fall . Yes, I've read all of the debate about witnessed falls but aren't most of them just finds as well? Because unless it hits you on the head you still have to find it. Don't you? So, aren't all falls just glorified (lucky) finds? And is there really a difference? When you think about it there must be really very few falls that did not also have to be found. And so; if you do have to look for the fall how is it not a find? Just a question no offence intended. Thanks
Carl
