Can Mother Nature forgive us? . Watching the barn door after the pit's been poisoned. Superfraud?
  • A fascinating post laced with a tailing of irony. Thanks for posting, GramMa.
  • "tailing of irony" GACK!!!
  • I actually SWAM in a sandpit like onto that on a moonlit night in Winslow, New Jersey... At least the security was that warningful on the signage I noticed afterwards. It was also the place where we found, down on the sandy shoreline, these marble sized green-glass objects, which I like to call the *Alien Eggs*...
  • The water of one in New Jersey was the exact same pretty color as the Yankee Doodle Tailings Pond on the second link. Hopefully as sweet and good as it looks? Whatever...
  • No fish. No frogs. And in this case, no algae...
  • I've often wondered about what kind of life forms will replace us when we die out.
  • Roaches with a fancy for iPods? *self note not to shake hands with Dan if he happens to show at a meetup*
  • Don't worry, Sugar. After three failed treatments with liquid nitrogen, they are going to stop the blood supply to those persistent warts with a dye-pulse laser tomorrow. Hopefully, a high five would be safe then.
  • By the way, that forbidden sandpit is located up a railroad track within a few miles of the infamous BLUE HOLE of legendary *Jersey Devil* fame. That hole has ALWAYS been a weird color with no help from mining, smelting or chrome-plating. Some think a meteorite formed it and that it is bottomless. Many have drowned.
  • Monkeyfilter: Some think a meteorite formed it and that it is bottomless.
  • More importantly, did you keep any of the so-called "alien eggs", Dan? Good luck with the warts my friend...
  • Thanks, SMT. I do appreciate that. Also, I HAVE kept some of them. The best, unscuffed ones, show some kind of contracting marks or artifacts of a cool-down at some point in the past, probably when they were formed. To my eye the surfaces of these marble-sized green-glass eggs is a dimensional fingerprint, actually resembling raised glass fingerprints seen at the normal scale...
  • Any chance of a picture? Because, I surely don't want to get to close to those green glass eggs. ...lest I come down with some of those warts myself.
  • As requested, SMT, I have just taken a flash photo of the so-called egg, and the result is truly amazing, as promised. So look for it in your mailbox. With YOUR own hand holding the *bag* on your MoFii profile - that would be a fine match for this picture of MY own hand holding the *ALIEN EGG* (albeit with some unforeseen dust particles attached at the periphery). Still, the general view is, dare I say it? Awesome. (Doomed warts hidden on backside knuckle of first finger.) You can clearly see the crenelations, ridges and circumnavigations of the fine lines on the surface. And the vacuities revealed inside, and beyond...
  • I'll try to make that object public evidence
  • You saw it here first, folks. They almost resemble uranium marbles in a way; if you took a UV light to them, they would glow if that were the case. It's hard to tell from the photos, but it does appear that they're not perfectly spherical. Naturally occuring?? What exactly did the signage near the sand pit warn of? WHAT THE HEY!?
  • Kinda looks like a retina.
  • ooooooh, neato!
  • They don't glow under a UV lamp. I can't repeat the exact wording, but the signs say unsafe, danger, etc. One of those mysteries fit for the Wierd New Jersey magazine. A priceless motherload of gem quality wierdness.
