Gold in Faeces

Seems the Brits have an unusual interest in American poop.  And it's spelled; " F E C E S" here in the USA, where even our poop is more valuable than theirs!  I always knew mine didn't stink, nice to know that when I poop, I poop GOLD! 

And in more local news; Placerville recently trenched up Main street to replace a water line or something in front of Placerville Hardware.  The kid who works there took a gold pan to the tailings and came up with some GOOD color!  Of course the city said the dirt belonged to the contractor so hands off!  Wow!  The city paid a good bit for the water line to get fixed AND gave away a whole lot of historic Placer gold as well. 

I have been trying to get the tunnel boring contractors to run their slurry over a sluice, they have NO idea the free $$ they are sending away in the fill material when working in the east valley near the foothills.
