AntiBody,

I just watched an interesting segment on 60 Minutes II on
CBS. It had to do with diamond mines that were recently
discovered in Canada.
Right now 1 is in production and they dig up approx. 1
million dollars worth per day.

Some other prospector dude found an other area that will go
into production very soon. It's expected to come out with
much more per day.

Then a woman who looked much less grizzly than the other
prospectors found perhaps the largest hole of them all.

She was still green fresh out of geology school. On her
last attempt, her core sample pulled out a 2 karrot gem.
Now after further investigation it appears that she stands
to be incredibly wealthy.

Perhaps you should dig a bit deeper each time you go to
plant something in your back yard.

Or let your dog Charlie dig as many holes as he wants. <g>

You might be sitting on pay dirt.
