My wife and I have been into silver strike collecting for about 2 years now. The people who got me started were Dennis Finn, Christie Gregory, Janice O'neal & Norm Clem. I have always found Norm Clem to be Very helpful, fair and above all honest. it upsets me when certain idiots impune his integrity. If he tells me something, i have always found it to be true amnd honest. Please find some other stones to turn. Steve Zacchi
