He everyone, I also have some interesting stories to tell, today was my =
best day here.=20
The weather turned great, the hype is fading and most people are gone. I =
hung out with Steve Arnold (Meteorite Broker) all day. I acquired over =
1.5 kilo today! Here is the kicker
I met a kid 16 years old and he pulled out of his pocket the best stone =
found from this fall! It is a 854 gram 99.9% fusion crusted individual. =
It was found the day after the fall but the kid was freaked out by the =
police taking them from people. He didn't tell anyone.=20
The best part about this stone is that it is 100% perfectly ORIENTED, =
completely lipped flat back, nosecone front, grooves and light flow =
lines on the side and even on the nose has a deep burnout groove. I =
almost died when I saw the stone. I made him and offer and we went to =
talk with his mother. She told him he wanted a new car and I offered him =
enough to buy one. Lets just say he was out car hunting this =
afternoon..... This stone will blow minds and likely never leave my =
collection. I also got another half kilo 99% crusted individual found in =
a backyard the morning of the fall. Pristine of course, and the only =
flaw is a piece of grass imbedded in the stone! I sold this piece to a =
great customer over the phone 3 minutes after buying it.=20
    I hunted alot today but found nothing. The rest of the people who =
called me all had slag or asphalt. No other meteorites. It is finished =
for the most part.=20

    I hunted all over and let me tell you. Some idiots are out here =
digging holes EVERYWHERE just like Adam said. I saw so many holes it =
just cracked me up. People need to realize that these stones are not 10 =
feet deep and covered with green grass. You know they did fall 5 days =
ago, so no grass has covered them yet.=20
    At least people are still excited. I hope to go home tomorrow =
afternoon, since it appears that I am running out of pieces to buy, I =
will leave after I hunt just a little more.=20
     I had another meeting tonight and I called Steve to meet me for =
backup, I feared an ambush, that is how bad the neighborhood or (hood as =
it is called here) is.=20
Nice people for the most part, but I went for a hunt in the woods and =
you don't even want to know what stuff I saw on the ground out there.=20
    As of now I have the most pieces of the fall but little for sale as =
most are in the large stones that wont be cut.=20
All who paid me, thanks, Ill get home and hook you all up asap.=20
I am getting copies of many newspapers and making a tape of all the news =
reports.=20
