[meteorite-list] Metal Detector Questions

[Dave Freeman mjwy]

Dear List, Mike, Paul;
I bite, who is John Tomlinson.....and why should he know a lot about 
detectors for meteorites if we have not heard of his name in meteorite 
circles......
Mike Miller would be a great topic leader on meteorite hunting with a 
detector.....
inquiring minds,
Dave F.
