Things to do with land and trees all involve mud at this time of year, can't get very bloody interested in that either -g- ... gawd i hate mud ... in re this fdc.v - Message 20842928
... they talk about the great wave of seismic in BC up to the mid-eighties ... well i still have a Caution Seismic Crew Ahead sign from that time, some idiot put it in a stupid place, well onto private property, at the bottom of a steep hill with a blind corner, in knee-deep mud ... good thing a load of logs didn't come into it first, because it's a hefty sign apparatus and could have cut a tyre ... mud was so deep, in fact i was there with a small machine in order to scrape off the loonshit so they could get something resembling traction ... just before the pavement we had this tiny flat spot where we had to shovel off such mud as we could, we were still leaving the stuff a mile down the road, lol [you couldn't get away with this now]

They had these thumper trucks that would go along the roads, stop every hundred feet or so and put down with hydraulics this pad that would vibrate at a certain frequency .... you could feel it some distance away, very impressive machinery .... i guess they have another unit receiving the signal and getting an underground map out of it .... lots and lots of coal, oil, and gas down there in BC, some of it quite scattered, like in the mid-island area, but much of it will be economic at some point

... i have to go out now ... into, among other things, mud ... aargh .... cheers
