Hi Richard,

Actually, all the hunters I've heard from have been searching what I
would
call the middle of the strewn field. No one seems to be hunting the
light
end (which is surprising since there should be a greater number of
stones
there, concentrated over a smaller area). The heavy end will be even
harder than the middle because the uncertainties are greater and the
stones are spread out even more.

Could this be why apparently so few stones have been found so far? The
hunters are actually looking at the "light" end of the field and the
large stones are still 20+ miles down range?
