Please help us legalize Indiana prospecting
Chuck Lassiter has started a petition to get the law changed to
specifically allow prospecting in Indiana rivers and streams.
I hope that each of you will sign the petition and put your muscle
behind this cause. If it passes, it might make some good precedents
for other states that are in "limbo".

Thanks for your help,
