Sewage Plant Yields Brown Gold
A sewage treatment facility in Nagano prefecture has recorded a higher gold yield from sludge than can be found at some of the world's best mines. An official said the high percentage of gold found at the Suwa facility was probably due to the large number of precision equipment manufacturers in the area. The facility recently recorded finding 1,890 grammes of gold per tonne of ash from incinerated sludge. The prefecture is so far due to receive 5 million yen ($55,810) for the gold, minus expenses. I can't wait to see the game show they make out of this. I bet the physical challenges are brutal.
No longer just a rhetorical device.
My God, it's Full of Source!

They really shit the jackpot.
That would make a shitty ring, I'd say. Engagement, anyone?
Tyler sold his gold to manufacturers at $20,000 a bar. Lord knows what they charged. It was beautiful. We were selling rich companies their own precious metals back to them.
