I know these laws don't always make sense. I think they are trying to protect
the Indian artifacts more than anything else by these no searching device rules.
The last I checked, these artifacts were made of stone not metal so who knows
what the lawmakers were thinking. Most listen too much of what they hear on TV
and have no reality of what really is going on.


I have a question. Does anybody know why Roach Dry Lake is closed in Nevada?

Best Regards,

Adam

They (the BLM) don't want to allow meteorite collecting but they will allow
ATV's to race and tear up the lake bed.
