[Robert1]

This is one of the funniest stories I've read in months.

Equevilent exchange. To make something, you have to have the correct ingreients to give in exchange to make it. Alchemy is like cooking. just less successful and more complicated.

so you're saying he should eat more iron?

LOL, in a way I feel sorry for this guy, I can only imagine the harassment he's getting now. Probly can't even go out in public with all those gold requests...

[Robert1]

Anyone with any common sense would know that trying to turn feces into gold is a crappy idea.

I think I found the video of this guy doing his work

This place smells like a pair of armoured trousers after the Hundred Years War! Baldrick, have you been eating dung again?

With the price of gold approaching $2000 an ounce, you will see many more silly experiments by individuals and even companies. I see the next big push will be extracting gold from sea water. See gold from sea water on goggle

The oceans contain millions of tons of gold, but in very small pieces that require special filters or electrical systems. There are over 40 US patents on this subject alone. This is going to be a golden opportunity for the con artists who will establish compnaies claiming they know the secret of extracting gold from the seas. When gold oges over $2000 a ounce you can bet there will be, e plenty of ideas floating, especially on Wall Street.

You can have mine, and I'll let you keep half the finished product.

I guess the guy was basically trying to disprove the saying "When you polish a terd its still a terd!" But seriously if the guy burnt down the place why would he tell people that he was trying to turn his feces into gold? 2 reasons why he shouldn't have: 1. He just revealed what he was trying to do to becaome rich. and 2. He looks like an idiot saying something like that!

Crap in one hand and wish in the other, atleast we're sure which fills faster now.
