Mike,

I don't disagree with you on most of what you said.

I just don't think that getting one's panties in a wad because someone
would want to know if they spotted your car somewhere is the huge "ethics
violation" that you make it out to be.

Maybe others would think it is. I don't. I just shared my opinion.

There are a few differences in these situations.

1. West was a free for all, I merely drove a mile down the road and found
5 or 6 cars and lots of hunters sitting beside the road, not exactly James
Bond level work (I know them all) so I stopped. I was not out looking for
you. And there were about 50 hunters in the strewnfield at that time, all we
were doing was expanding the known area.

2. I was not begging people to give your vehicle information so I could
spy on you.

3. This is not a free for all strewnfield yet, and Carl in that email was
making offers, that if those he asked gave him my car data, he would make it
 worth their information.

4. Carl is acting like the searching for my vehicle is meteorite hunting
as opposed to taking eyewitness reports, driving all over southern Arizona,
taking aziumuths with compasses, and triangulating this fall, which is what
Jack did. Homework paid off, he did not stoop to merely looking for the
hunters.

Steve, I wanted your data on your West stones more for total known weight
and number of stones found more than coordinates. I knew where you were the
whole time, and respected your location and me or people with me never
hunted where you were. There is some respect involved actually.


If hunters did their homework and showed up in the strewnfield, that is
one thing, but to resort to spying on me, that is pitiful, like I said.
I guess I have to watch for cars waiting at my gate from now on. Taking
the shortcut is the way of a lazy person.

Steve, there are differences in these situations.
thanks by the way on your congrats for the stone I found, I sent a reply
but with the wrong email so it did not go through.


I feel that am IMCA member is acting in a way that is wrong, and Anne
seems to agree.
