The only difference between the U.S. and Australia's restrictive meteorite
laws is that meteorites belong to the Crown in one country and the federal
and now state governments in another. It will not be long before finds on
private land here in the U.S. are affected. Public lands are being put off
limits at an alarming rate. The more press, the more interest there is in
overregulated every aspect of our lives. The old timer, treasure hunters
had it correct about keeping your mouth shut about such things. Shameless
self-promotion of a few will only lead to more restrictions for everybody
else.
