So I'm on Amazon and just happen to see a $2,500 metal detector.. I'm like my god . I scrolled down to the questions and someone actually asked " Does this detect gold and silver ? "


I have lost all hope for humanity

The $2500 one, can actually find gold and silver from the car as you drive around looking for a place to detect. No research needed.

Fills in your holes for ya too.

Long ago I gave up hope for the future of humanity. One of my biggest issues is "safety" ....the planet isn't being allowed to kill off the weak and stupid anymore, natural selection isn't being allowed to do it's job, and we're soiling the gene pool.

Followed by ......its just acceptable to be dumb and useless today.....look at politicians. We elect these fools to lead us. That doesn't say much for the big picture.

Someone will lay out the $2500 for the detector, go to the local park and dig holes the size of manhole covers, find NOTHING, and then put the detector in the garage until it ends up in a yard sale.

We keep electing these political fools because there are no true leaders running. As for the weak and stupid....they're multiplying like flies.

Kinda a sad state of things, ain't it.

This is why I prefer to live in my little hamsterball. I don't really want to be a part of that.

Wow...you both sound really compassionate towards lesser minded people.
Remind me to ignore both of you!

Really ?
Edgy.
Edgy BS bait BS!
I have compassion, just not enough for all of em.

And to expect me to show compassion to all them that put forth no effort to better themselves.........is akin to forcing my children to learn to speak Mexican, in a country that speaks English. Because people are to lazy to do it right.

If your a True Treasure Hunter & Got the Bucks, it Makes Sense .
It's sad that it probably cost no more then a Lower priced Detector
to manufacture , But I Doubt it would have ever been Perfected,
If Not for the fact they could Charge Big Bucks.

in case you find something like this with it :laughing7:

The Civil War Relic Hunter Would also Probably Dream of One

The person who asked the question actually gives me hope.

It’s the ones who don’t think to ask questions that you need to worry about.

We are all ignorant about spheres that are outside of those we regularly travel. I still remember the look on my dad’s face when I first asked him what a flat tappet cam was. It was as if for a moment, he questioned all of his life choices as he disowned me with his eyes.
