[Paul Swartz via Meteorite-list]

Finally - an explanation for Joe Biden, who I've always suspected has an iron 
meteorite for a brain. Probably and ataxite :)

Re: [meteorite-list] Fwd: Questions about the SF National Forest

[Carl Esparza via Meteorite-list]

Dennis, My experience is the same as yours . In fact because I still regularly 
search the Santa Rotas for the "Tucson Irons" I wondered what would happen if I 
ever found it. So,  I went to Game and Fish in the Federal building in Tucson 
and was told exactly what you posted. And a paid permit would be required for 
larger landscape material at  a sub-station near the hunt site but, as you 
said. You are welcome to hunt but, Nothing found can be sold. They do make that 
very clear. I did find a prospect far south of there and I think it was on 
private property or state land? 

Best Regards,
Carl
