I never, in any realm, thought that I would ever be conversing with Adam Hupe
in this manner.

For Me, this thread is way overcooked.

I've stated my opinions--if any apologies are necessary--you got 'em.

Done, John

I was ok with the same personal email to me but since you posted
to the list....

I agree with one sentance--"For me, knowledge and accurate information are key,"

So, when you became aware (1980's) of Unesco's possible implications to
meteorite hunting/ownership did you enact any actions or legislation to Protect
anyone/anything?

What Knowledgeable information would you impart to this list on the recent
decision to remove the US from Unesco?

What Accurate information would you be willing to impart to this list on the
ramifications/advantages of our withdrawal from Unesco Regarding Meteorites.

Remember--knowledge and accurate information are key.

John

It is obvious to most that making people aware of UNESCO and what
effects it may have on our avocation is important, at least to those who
think long-term.

I was first made aware of UNESCOs influence on treasure hunting in the
1980s. The late and Great, Richard Norton first pointed out to me what
influence the Douglass Schmitt paper that ties meteorites to UNESCO and
ownership laws had on meteorite hunters and collectors.

I am just spreading the knowledge. You cannot protect yourself against
things you know nothing about thus the update. Some long-term thinkers
are probably relieved by the News Article while others simply do not care.

I do see how stupid this is getting to use your terms. If disbursing
information is not helpful in your opinion, then it is within your 1st
amendment rights to express this.

For me, knowledge and accurate information are key,

Adam
