I agree. 20% for the collector and 80% for the Smithsonian. :)

Hi Jeff and list,
I just threw the number 50% out there because it seemed like a fair
compromise.
I like 20% better. :)

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.

I have a question to everyone who hunts Federal Lands:
How many of you were FORCED... FORCED to give your meteorite(s) to
the Smithsonian?

No,
But you will have to send half of the fish,
if you catch any, to the Smithsonian...

Hi Martin and all,
Next thing you know they will be putting a stop to fishing in this
country.

Quoting Martin Altmann :
>>> No, where did I?
Jason.
I like history. I like the Bulletins, I like modern natural
science. I
love
meteorites.
And, yes, I like my profession too,
a profession, nobody has to be ashamed of.
These are the four reasons,
why I can't keep mum these years.
Because I simply can't understand: Aren't they seeing, what they
are
doing?
If only a single one could explain me,
which the positive effects of the restrictive laws are or were
in Australia, in Canada, in China, in Oman, in Algeria, in
Argentina,
in the
Philippines, in Denmark, in Sudan, in Libya, in Namibia, in South
Africa
(?), now in USA, in Poland, in Russia (?), in Switzerland..
then I promise to be much quieter.
Perhaps you can help me with that?
So far I see only, that they risk all.
Thank you
Martin

So, what you're saying, Martin, is that you advocate hunters lying
about where they find meteorites so that they can keep them.
Because that was his question.
...Interesting.
Jason
