![]() While surfing eBay I ran into this machine auction: http://makeashorterlink.com/?Q1FA24D0B Seems like the seller is a confirmed "Trekie", but he does have a link on the eBay auction page to a rather interesting web page with lots of historical facts and much data about the properties of gold: http://back.to/timetravel/gold.htm Jeff -- Jeffry Wisnia (W1BSV + Brass Rat '57 EE) "As long as there are final exams, there will be prayer in public schools" |

Gold is just another semi-heavy metal, so I'm not really concerned
about its origins. What interest me most is where the large placier deposits of gold released by the erosion of gold containing mountains formations are likely to exist today. A bit of elementary physics helps to provide a clue. Harry C. |

I'm not sure if his auction violates the Prime Directive, but the
graphics employed on his website certainly do! The horizontal scrolling, the blinking in the text background, and his choice of background/text color makes the site frustrating to try and read. Harry C. |
