The man pulled up his truck, looked through us like we were non-exixtant ignoring the fact, as we protested, that we had previous permission to search the property in question. Sonny was so aggressive that he didn't even notice that one of our team members was a 77 year old man that was the Patriarch of the family that owned the land. He ignored us and hauled ass straight up to the front door trying to conive his way in. Nice work Sonny. You deserve a big pat on the back. You belong in Georgia. You're a real inspiration to us all you greedy S*B. Bill PS: Keep pumping the lack of material. Time will tell. ---------------------------------------- > To: meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com > Date: Mon, 3 May 2010 00:37:00 -0400 > From: wahlperry at aol.com > Subject: [meteorite-list] Wisconsin Meteorite Hunt. > > Hi All, > > I just returned from my second hunt in Wisconsin.
