Hey Woody,well I think we got spoiled early on,so anything without a name gets discarded.Unless its interesting!.And of course we have no room to store them,there're
must be between 6000 & 8000 discards.
Some days thats about all we find,and its like all dumps,nothing..and them bingo...then nothing.

Hi CanadianBoy, I am impressed by the bottles dug from the test hole. In particular, the four blues. What was in the blues?

Cheers from Oz!

Hmm, lots of discards and no way you can haul them out to sell or donate for postage to anyone so the stuff is saved or appreciated by somebody else? Be a shame if that stuff was destroyed and built over or access no longer allowed to it. Some folks have no place to dig or are unable to dig. I know it's not your fault but what a shame! Wouldn't it be cool if someone had they're own land that would never be built on and the 8000 discards could lay there and be rediscovered by novices for fun or for 25 cents a piece even! Gees 8,000 10 cent bottles = 800 bucks! Possibilities, possibilities and more possibilities wish I had that opportunity! It's a goldstrike for sure!

...How do you find these threads??? ...WHY??? [&:]

Anyway, I'm from Glen Ridge, and I dig mostly here and in a couple of the neighboring towns. Dumps are certainly hard to come by, so I'm trying to dig more privies. Plenty of those, in this old section of the country...
