  Hello again Norbert and list.=20
  =20
  On a more serious note, I DO recommend the Gold Basin area as a =
genuine possibility for a meteorite hunting documentary. As you and most =
other list members likely know, the Gold Basin Strewnfield is somewhat =
overlapped by other meteorite falls which provides the opportunity of =
finding more than one type of meteorite at a single filming location. =
That's the good news.=20
  =20
  The bad news is that ''directors'' are not the patient types. Most =
would prefer the hunter to find a meteorite on demand and that's a lot =
easier said than done, unless you bring a few with you. =20
  =20
  IF you could get permission from the ''owners'' of METEOR CRATER, =
which is a long shot at best, the film makers would get the desired =
footage in no time flat. The problem with that scenario, however, is the =
viewer would be left with the impression that finding meteorites is as =
easy as shooting fish in a barrel.=20
  =20
  The Odessa Strewnfield might be worth a shot but chances are slim of =
finding anything weighing more than a few grams. Directors will want BIG =
specimens. Gold Basin is still your best civilized bet! =20
  =20
  If anyone wants to do a segment on IMPACTITE HUNTERS let me know... I =
can be your hunter/guide, I can line up a chopper for panoramic shots =
and I can assure the segment producers of finds that will make impactite =
buffs drool without resorting to planting a single boulder. Northern =
Ontario Canada is quite civilized and it's an impactite hunters dream =
come true.=20
  =20
  By the way, we also have some of the best film crews in the world up =
here and they don't demand a 15 minute break every half hour. If you =
don't believe me just ask Normie Jewison. He'd back me up on that =
statement...=20
  =20
  Wishing everyone involved with the meteorite hunter documentary =
successful results regardless of choice of location.=20
  =20
