Sounds like a good starting point for Dan Brown's next book. -------- Christopher Shea, staff archivist Delaware Academy of Medicine Wilmington, DE 19806 ________________________________ From: Archives & Archivists [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Roy Webb Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 11:50 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: interesting morning It's amazing the things you learn on the reference desk. This morning, I've learned that Montezuma spoke Ute; that 2000lb bars of gold, sacks of Spanish coins from the 1500s, and "over 1500 lbs of 20-lb bars of gold" are laying all around the Uintah Mountains in eastern Utah; that there are also "red diamond" mines, and that a bar of gold that is 600 ft by 2000ft is also somewhere in the Uintahs. The patron of course knows exactly where they are; as soon as he takes over all the electricity generation in the country he is going to get them in the giant trucks he has ordered from Austria. Or use his hovercraft. Roy Webb, C.A. Multimedia Archivist Special Collections J.
