"stay off ... permission to hunt on it."

I'm with Eric on the panthers; it's hard to live as a child in the
natural habitat of panthers (the *Florida Panther* is the official
state animal and correct common name of the animal), but our guys
certainly don't range to Texas.

As for the scare tactics, sheesh, every time there is a new meteorite
fall we run through the same drill and after a while hasn't anyone
gotten a little tired of the overly protective nature of it? "Oh,
don't go there!" Oh spiders and snakes!" Oh crazy druggies!" Oh, mean
thugs!"

Well, I agree that there are risks especially in certain circumstances,
and a low key noting of caution is always helpful and great. What I
object to is the three ringed circus that usually seems to be blown out
of proportion in the most inconspicuous places ... now, a nature
reserve outside Dallas ! Risk is such a subject and relative
construction, I mean walking down the street in my hometown in Mexico
used to be safer than any US city and now it is 10 times more dangerous
that tough US inner cities ...

The advice to actually respect peoples wishes is the tried and true
method of success in the strewn field. Here's a training video for a
future meteorite hunter who would eat the space rock given a chance !
Ah, to learn the complex definition and subtleties of the meaning of
NO! (nao)!

Kindest wishes
Doug
