Am I under some obligation to prove myself to some one?
Only those you desire to convince. Most of us have heard of at least 17 findings of "Bo Whoop" by as many different people in as many different places @ as many different times. Guess most just no longer take anyones "Word" on the "Find".
Guess the general consensus is, if you want us to know you have it, prove it. If not just keep it hid away & don't mention it, seems pretty simple. As I recall though "You" were the one who first brought up the subject, and should know full well it would be looked upon with suspicion unless "Good, Irrefutable Proof" was forthcoming.
