Jason, Mike,

Of course you're right about the metal flakes, the stone would have to be
cut and polished to see them. (Duh! on my part).

It would seem that if this was a big fall, at least one stone would have
turned up by now. The Amish farmers with their slow moving horse drawn
equipment would find some stones you'd think. I think there are also a lot
of Mennonite and Old Order Brethren farmers in that area. They're all people
that live close to the earth. They would be more likely to respond to a
postcard written in Pennsylvania Dutch (Deitsch). I don't think there's an
online translator for that though!

The corn picking will start in a couple of weeks, maybe something will turn
up.
