Hey, Bob -

I'm just now catching up.

And I kinda don't like the phrase 'barren desert'. We who live in it - by
choice - already have enough of a problem with heavy metals from the Marine
Logistics base and the Sheriff's Department busting meth kitchens and dumping

all kinds of crap into our groundwater.

When I bought my piece of dirt out here, in '88, my water table was at 12'.
Now, to get to potable water, we have to drill down to almost 600', to a
whole other aquifer.

I know you were being funny (below) , but I thought kind of the same thing.
Either ship the stuff to the barren desert (okay it 'would' disrupt the
desert eco-system); Or; maybe some asrea of poor soil quality nearer to
maryland,
and wait for 'time' to cure the 'additives' problem, while providing
'future' soil enhancement. Once again, the fuel and money for
transaportation...................bobford
