Hi Greg, I considered my post, a witty play on different definitions of debris, and fuel for thought.
I said "might" because laws are either non-existent, vague, poorly written, untested, conflicting, subject to too much interpretation, or some combination. I certainly wouldn't advocate breaking any specific anti-meteorite discovery/recovery laws.
