[meteorite-list] Landowner wins custody battle for meteorite

[Meteorites USA]

Very cool... Now, if we can just get certain private sector citizens, 
and people in our own government to remember the landowner owns the 
meteorite found on their property here in the USA.

Anyone know of any other meteorite custody battles going on right now 
here in the USA besides Lorton?

Regards,
Eric
