Beep for booty! (article)

"Then, there are the forums.

These are like virtual madhouses in which metal heads can brag about their latest finds, or if that’s not convincing enough, upload pictures of their finds. One may also participate in discussions about the various metal detector models (as if they were cars) or how to master the art of persuasion in order to obtain government permission for on-site excavation (or else, the hobby could turn felonious)."



I wonder what forums they were looking at? I can honestly say that this fourm has never seemed like a "virtual madhouses" nor have i ever considered myself or any of my fellow detectorists to be "metal heads" (ok, maybe SOME of you) but over all a good article

Great article Alan... funny in some areas... wonder what the silver target was that he did not dig... RickO
