rockafeller shank---There is not a Frack Park! Frack has to do with the tennis courts near the woods in Linwood. I am saying that Triangle Park or Linwood are the

key places to go. There were about 15 people at Triangle Park and about 40 (or more) at Linwood earlier today.

It wouldn't be in the James J. Hill house. They would never put it anywhere where people didn't have free access to look for it. Besides, those interpretations of the

clues are pretty weak.

frack is not a useful name! Tomes is either a name in a scholarly book, or nmaes from fables jack'njill!!!

well, I'll try it again- There is an instrument that would detect that plastic medellion!!!! but it costs thousands...alitt`l food for thought.....remember the guy that found it

2 times??? if you see someone out there working what looks like a metal detector, confront them....people may laugh, but it may be the real thing. I've been looking

many a year and have been close 3 times....VERY close twice!! Don't get me wrong, I'll never use it---FAIR IS FAIR and and it is a ritual for my kids and I. BUT

what can they make it out of next????
