lol, this goes straight to the handbook "how to make the best of any question asked in a forum", which I'm planning to write once the blueberry bush manifesto is done...

I don't want to take this thread to a different direction however I feel this is the right time to introduce the fact that Kim Jong Il was an avid watcher of a specific north Korean raspberry bush called 딸기 부시 which inspired him to great things. But enough of hilariousness, this thread is a nugget in itself, all we need is to make it into a song and sell it.

I was lookimg into extracting gold from computer chips. Pentium III is a good one. Older ones have more gold. I'm also just fond of the PIII for some crazy reason. Anyway, you have got to use Nitric acid. It's dangerous.

Now some of the world "great minds" would like to visit an asteroid for Platinum. The desire for valuable elements has been very hard on the African continent. Past and current wars on the African continent have resource exploitation as one of the root causes. (imho)

So for the better part of my life, I have fancied myself an amature miner, not to be confused with a relitive minor. I have found that even with loads of examples of what gold actually is ( found on charts and radio stations ) I really have no idea of how to refine my ore and now I am not sure if I ever really knew how to dig at all. If I find any gold. It would likely be a fellow miner that would be the one to spot it for me. I have found lots of load bearing ore and if I hide it all away hoping to know whats gold I may never know what I actually have but it will always be safe. I found a group of miners to dig with in hopes of building friendships and some experience of proper digging and refining of the ore to hopefully speed up that process. What I have discovered is that just like life is not the destination but the journey, mining for musical gold is not about the nuggets its about enjoying the time in the trenches with fellow miners. I have never found the nugget as of yet but I have found something every bit as valuable while looking. I am puzzled that the owner of the claim I work on as a guest would question wether anyone should ever hear another note by him. That is a sad thought. If I do find a real nugget I would hope that it would have the opportunity to be seen at least by my friends out mining the fields.

i prefer apricots myself... although a good strawberry takes some beating. still both do more to sustain me than hidden gold nuggets
