i also don't recall anyone having suggested that mike has been  
"heroic."  however, mike's efforts and successes in meteorite  
recovery are nothing short of extraordinary.

regardless of what anyone personally thinks of mike or his off-topic  
missives, any future overview of meteorite hunters which neglects to  
cite mike's accomplishments should be regarded with suspicion---as it  
would be conspicuously weak in scholarship.
