But is that likely to happen? Of course not. As it stands, I don't feel particularly hindered by the current guidelines. My concern is that mounting an aggressive campaign to elicit a revision in these guidelines could backfire. The easiest answer for a bureaucrat to give, when pressed for a response, is "No". I'm happy to support any effort to document the accomplishments and contributions to meteoritical science by private hunters. I just hope that it is handled in a way that doesn't provoke an outright hunting ban by the Feds next year. > > Doug Ross > doug at dougross.net > > > > ______________________________________________ > > Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com > Meteorite-list mailing list > Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com > http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list > ______________________________________________ > > Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com > Meteorite-list mailing list > Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com > http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Sun 09 Dec 2012 05:39:18 PM PST |
