Nonsense. The BHI, the ALAA, and Tim Johnson of South Dakota are in the 
middle of an attempt to pass legislation that will allow commercial 
collectors full access to all fossils on all Federal Lands. Amateur and 
professional paleontologists should unite to defeat the proposed bill 
because, if passed, it will benefit *only* commercial collectors, and we 
will see a drastic loss of new discoveries to the private market.

Again, I have copies of the Fossil Protection Act of 1995; if you'd like to 
see it send me your postal adress.
