[@richardfellows5041]

Hi Jeff, I hope you are feeling better. I really do enjoy your videos. My uncle was a geologist and professor at San Jose State. He had kinda a funny view about time. He would say something about 'those hills are really recent, only about 5 million years old'. When my aunt asked him when he was going to get a certain task done, he would reply - real soon now! This left her somewhat perplexed about whether it would be done in her lifetime.

[@Askjeffwilliams]

thanks Richard ..... hahahahaha

thank you for sharing your time and knowledge. In my humble opinion you are THE historian, professor and patron of everything mining because of your willingness to put yourself out there in the public light instead of quietly becoming a financially successful man. I am a disabled veteran that had become a recluse. Your energy and your understandable information has gotten me out of my hole and into holes I'm digging to be part of the search team. Thank you.

That was a good story from the old timer. So come on LETS GO!

Remember the Show " The Ballad of Buster Scruggs " ...... there was an episode on there called " Mr. Pocket " Its about an Old Time prospector and Mule that goes out into the wilderness to find Gold. He did a great job and we wanted to have him narrate our adventure to the Comstock Lode in Virginia City and he agreed. If you like his narrating skills we will ask him back to do some more ....so smash that like button ....and leave a comment because Mr. Pocket would love to do more shows.

That was NOT an AI production?

[@joschmidt4951]

Howdy Jeff, Loved the presentation on Virginia City. Wow what a tough life. Don't you worry or push getting back to the drift mine. Heal up and get fully mended. That gold is not going anywhere unless those big old worms eat it. Keep up the good work and my best to you and yours. ⛏⛏
