It's pretty mysterious shit, and not far away from where i live.

Fucking cool, I can't figure out why they haven't hired a ground penetrating radar company. I've seen engineers use that stuff on building sites, it would absolutely pinpoint any void areas or metal stuff. I haven't seen anything written about it though.

[ZeldaQueen]

Yeah, they've been going at it for years.

I never got that though. From what I've heard, the water's been too strong to let divers down and cameras lowered have only showed a chest and a body before breaking. But you'd think that would be enough to get some big guns out. I mean, with all of the technology today, couldn't something get down there for a better look?

[Dimnos]

You would think. I bet the big guns dont want to invest into it only to dig up the chest and it be another Capones Vault.

[stevetothepast]

Actually I'm pretty sure the big guns own it. From what I hear, the Irvings(http://www.irvingoil.com/company/refinery.asp) own it, so I'm not sure what the hold up is really. If you think about it there could be millions of dollars worth of gold from some ol scallywag down there.

[Dimnos]

That would be awesome. Could just be a bunch of mud. :/

[Tadao]

Does it just being there generate any money? Tshirts, bumper stickers, private tours?

[stevetothepast]

not that I know of. But a tour would be cool.

Theres a dome shaped room with an apple IIe sitting on a table. That stone tablet means "4, 8, 15,16,23,42". Now that I think about it I've seen this episode before and those people that run the place are NOT to be trusted.

[ZeldaQueen]

If that were me, I'd be going down there money or not just out of freaking curiousity.

I know a guy who won the lotto on those numbers, weird that you'd mention it.

every time I read your posts, I fall down with hysterical laughter.

[MajorScales]

You would think I would have more friends :\

[johnalley]

Agreed, he should have just left a bit more mystery rather than making the fear an actual being.

I don't have the time or patience to read through this thread to see if the above comment is relevant, so beware of possible spambot
