I am trying to protect the avocation of meteorite collecting. I saw my
last hobby, "Treasure Hunting" which I was engaged in since 1975
completely destroyed by those that thought they were above the fray.
The lack of respect for laws and rules resulted in most lands being
taken off limits. Lazy hunters who left holes behind where kids could
break their ankles was the start of the end for amateur treasure hunters
who left land in better condition then when the entered by removing trash.
Meteorite hunting and collecting is being threatened every day.
UNESCO is just one of many examples,

My opinion is you could be doing/helping so many people in the
meteoritic community but it "seems" you feel persecuted because
of opinions towards you on the Internet -- this is The World WIDE WEB.
Last I checked--it is not a prosecutable crime to express your Opinion
whether on the internet or not.
However, there is the "chilling effect law" which is prosecutable.
IE: "where speech or conduct is supressed by fear of penalization".
"{Remember what you say is permanently recorded and can be used
against you in a court of law.}" ["Adam Hupe"]. Bad road to go down.
I don't care for what people say about me and good god what they may
think of me--hell, I keep going and I don't have 1/10 of your expertise.
As you may have surmised, I don't care for threatening stupid talk.
All I Really want are discussions about METEORITES.................
Not personal BS.
Respect, John

Here is the infamous Douglass Schmitt paper that tied UNESCO to
meteorites in PDF format:

By the way, some people do not think that I see what is posted in
Facebook. Even though I do not subscribe to Facebook, I record anything
that pertains to me for future reference. Remember what you say is
permanently recorded and can be used against you in a court of law.
It seems some dealers do not like what I have to say about piggy backers
and tailgaters. I even had an Original Dealer (OD) violate a
long-standing agreement we had by mentioning my name. Note only this,
there are a few newbie dealers who feel the need to badmouth me and have
reduced themselves to name calling. It is interesting that dealers that
have something to hide are usually the cowards to post in other forums
not realizing that it upsets the majority of collectors and honest
dealers who follow the rules and demand provenance.
