Hi Atul,
I read that Rob Matson has given you most of the information already.
This is
the EXACT same information that I would have given you. Rob has almost
all
of my current information. So it seems you already have what you
need.
As with all data I wanted to get the ok from the guys still hunting
in the area. The data that we recovered was from many hours in
the field and from other meteorite hunters working the area.
As a courtesy to them, I could not release their
information without an ok from these guys. Atul, I also want to make
it clear that I never requested any find locations from you
(nor DO I need any)
at any point in the conversation. During your phone
call this morning, I told you that I would be tied up most of the day
and would call you later. You seemed awfully persistent in getting
this information. A couple of friends of mine still have plans on
hunting a few more weeks. The reason I was reluctant with the
information, is from what happened at the Candle Factory where you told
the land owner that you could get 50- 60 dollars per gram on any
meteorite
found on her land. After you said this, Joe was kicked off the land.
With these tactics no meteorites would be recovered and possibly lost.
It took
9 guys a day and a half of walking in the fields to locate the pieces
in this
area and from your actions no one else will be hunting this land.
We walked many miles in the field to locate these finds and I wanted to
make sure I looked out for the best interest of my fellow hunters. Maybe
next time instead of driving your car around and talking to the land
owners you can join us for the hunt for 8 to 10 hours a day. This may
help you gain some perspective on where I am coming from.
Sonny

Ready- and data request.
Hi allJust returned from WI- 3 more days of data.I had honored sonny
clarys request to me to not release data or the prelim strewn field
map last week monday with the understanding that his group would
provide me with data of all their finds.As of this morning sonny has
advised me that he or his group will not be providing any data to me
for a few weeks. I have decided to make my compliation of data for
approx 75 finds public.If you are in the area and need an area to
search I pls email me off list with (WI strewn field map) and I will
provide you with data- or call me- if you need an area now. Please do
provide reasons you would need the data- search, research or dealer. If
you have a confirmed find- with pics and weight- pls email it to off
list- with WI data in the subject line.I am especially curious about
the 2+ kg piece that has now disappeared. Did some dealer buy it and
doesn't want anyone to know lest the price fall.I have a pic of the 2
kg if anyone wishes to see it.I also have a bearing on the 6 larger
pieces that went thataway- in case anyone wishes to chase them down.I
believe the best way to recover stones in this and all falls is the
free unrestricted sharing of find and modelling data. I thank Rob
matson for his help and support,and all others who helped. Its been
fun.RegardsAtul kumarCell - 219- 308-8282Amateur astronomer-
