I say it should be "Finders Keepers"

If they are too lazy or Cheap to get it themselves all these years,
it dosn't belong to them.

That's what floors me - let somebody spend the money, take the risks, do the work, and find the lost. Then jump in and lay claim to their hard-earned finds.

1) Makes you wonder why people bother searching anymore

2) Makes you wonder why they attempt to be honest when they do find something of value


What a bunch of horse#$%^ ! But, that's what we all get for electing lawyers to public office, too !
