Sitting here this morning a song kept going through my head from the Hippie era "WHERE HAVE ALL THE YOUNG MEN GONE-GONE TO GRAVE YARDS EVERYONE" and this started me to thinking about TODAYS treasure hunters.
You can sit and listen to the Old Pros talk about the Good Old Days and they tell a good story but my friends times have changed. If the Old guys were out treasure hunting today they would starve to death and fall by the way side. Do not get me wrong they did their part in history and will be recorded as Heroes as they should be.
I recall one time that they used to blow up ballast rock to get to what was underneath. They were not concerned with cannons or anchors or anything else except Gold and Silver and there were no laws that prevented them from doing this.
Their time has come and will soon be in the History books.
I guess the reason that I am writing this is because I still get questions about the 2008 Expo asking who will be the Guest Speakers and I tell them that I am not in charge of the 2008 EXPO and if I were there would NOT be a single Guest Speaker
My friends the Future is for the younger generation and not for old farts like myself. I can help those that have an open mind and not afraid to do things a little different than Old Timers. We old farts are set in our ways but after many many years we have learned from our numerous mistakes and try to past on this knowledge, sometimes we can but most of the time no one wants to listen.
I guess that I am leading to is the upcoming 2008 EXPO.
WHERE IS IT GOING TO TAKE PLACE?
WHAT ARE THE DATES?
WHO IS INVOLVED?
WHO ARE THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS?
I was also told that there would not be a CEO but if this is correct then who makes the final decissions? Somebody has to or it will not go anywhere but down hill.
People think there is plenty of time but time is running out FAST and DECISSIONS have TO BE MADE.
Maybe I am feeling sorry for myself but I have no idea I just want the EXPO to be a success and where everyone can have a great time.
