Maria Sheepishly Adds:
I am so desperate to find "something" walking fields every single day 
looking for meteorites that I have started to fill my rock bag with scrap 
pieces of metal, miscellaneous junk, gum wrappers, fast food containers and 
the occasional bolt, screw and nail. While I may not be ridding the world of 
those pesky meteorites laying everywhere, I am providing some job security 
to our garbage collection service employees. (Of course I look the metal 
stuff over really carefully one more time just in case space rocks could 
actually weather to look like one of those rusted old metal pop lids.) Sick.
