Who's there?

Dwayne

Dwayne who?

Dwayne the lake some more please so I can continue MDing.

I went to a local lake that gets drained each winter. I found a large number of artifacts including three cell phones. Go figure!!!

I also found many clad coins. My optical paper money finder located a bill in the mud. It was so decomposed that I left it on a rock figuring that it would take $5 worth of time to get my bank to replace it.

I forgot my headphones and used the on-board speaker and determined that the batteries last just as long without the headphones as with them.

Mark, the bank should replace any bill that is 5/8 there. If not the Federal Reserve should. Headphones should extent your battery life. And as far as the jokes are concerned, "Don't quit your day job".

Take care, Dave

Hi Dave.

The nearest Federal Reserve bank is in San Francisco. I'll drive 850 miles down there Monday to get the bill replaced. [size=medium]N O T![/size]

It just isn't worth carrying a hand full of dirty paper fragments into a bank for $1.00. If it were a $5 bill, I would consider it. There are so many quarters on that lake bottom that in the time it would take to drive to my local bank, I could find 4 quarters and save the gasoline.

My bank, Wells Fargo gives me upon request a plastic money bag. Just fill out the front of the bag, with a black marker, with what coins, and bills are in the bag, tear off the top of the bag (there serialized) turn it in to your personal bank, they sent it to the Federal bank for verification. Once verified they add the amount to your checking account. Takes about 7 days. DUH!! That way you don't have to drive 850 miles. GEEEEEEZ

It isn't worth it to me to carry around a disintegrating blob of mud and remnants of a $1 bill. I'm not that destitute FTLOG!
