Mike and List: That's so funny. Everyone is jumping on the band wagon to make a little cash. It doesn't bother me a bit, because if you want to get into any venture or start a new hobby, you should do research on it first so you don't get taken advantage of. I just wonder if this person has ever hunted a meteorite before? Perhaps he has, but marketing and sales may be his true hobby.
