Marc,
As a business owner it seems to me you are mainly obligated to satisfy your
customers needs. These are the folks paying you for your services. No one else.
And as such you might consider everything else secondary.
In order to be faithful to your customers the co-ords should be kept

I've been talking with a few people about logging the Battle Mountain
meteorites, and I'd like to start some discussion on the topic of find
coordinates. This is NOT directed at any one person, but I would like to
editorialize a bit. I'm getting a lot of push-back about

Hi Marc and list,
I think your right with the
Radar pin pointing the field of fall I think there is no need to hold back
cords of finds. We all know that they are there and for the most part we all
know that if you find one the finder will search the whole surrounding area so
what's the point.

Hi Marc, List,
First off, THANKS for all your efforts Marc. Publishing this data is a
valuable resource to the meteorite community and the scientific
meteoritics world at large.
...is it really important to hide the find locations?...
Only if there is a monetary or legal reason to do so.
Hello all first of all old habits die hard, so even if there is less
reason to be secretive we will tend to lag behind in making the
change. Now yes the radar is awesome and puts us close enough to find
the strewn field. It even gives us a very good idea where to look for
more pieces. There are
answers Marc's
question.

Hi Marc,
That is a really tough question you have brought up, and I can see both sides.
Even with the extremely helpful aid of radar analysis, it can still take a
tremendous amount of search time and effort to make the first recoveries from a
new fall, so I don't blame finders for feeling
No matter how rational Dr. Marc Fries tries to put forward the
advantages of cooperation, there are basic instincts and behaviours that
we share with our cousins in the nth degree, the other primates.

Hi All,
I would concur with Doug Ross's and Mike Miller's take on the meteorite
coordinate publication problem, and would opine that the least-offending
solution is to embargo coordinates for some period of time to respect
the
efforts of hard-working meteorite hunters while still satisfying the
