Hi Jeff and list,

I just threw the number 50% out there because it seemed like a fair
compromise. Trust me, collectors won't get such a deal from the
federal government on vertebrate fossils or cultural artifacts! But in
this case, everybody wins if the owner (the federal govt, representing
the people) splits the specimens with individual finders. Unlike the
fossils and artifacts, meteorites can be divided without losing their
major scientific value. Without a solution like this, everybody loses:
the owners get nothing and anybody who collects meteorites could be a
criminal.?
