The Pan info was overwhelming. wow...

The link to bedrock dreams and the "Green Horn" article scared me.
It was like I was reading about myself - right now - the newbie, entrenched in anything and everything prospecting.
Wife giving me grief for 3 nights straight building a Sniper Rifle (Hand Dredge).
And always on the internet late at night looking for places, safe and legal to try this new hobby of mine.
I haven't been on my mountain bike in two weeks....
Learning more about the Crevasseing and Sniping techniques and getting more drawn to that.
Youngest one loves the idea of getting the wet suit and snorkel on and crevasseing (SP?)

thanks for the great links to new stuff.
