Hi Everybody,

Today I went to Niagara Falls to see the Floral Clock. While peering into the well under the clock, I saw some Silver Canadian Quarters and a half dollar in there. There were too many tourists at the time, so I was embarrassed to fish them out. For anyone who is going to be in the area on the July 4th weekend, they're all yours.

It's OK to fish out, you just have to toss some regular change back in to replace it and restore balance to the universe. :)

I would have dove in there with my shoes on, LOL, of course, I would have replaced it with regular change afterwards.

I just pictured a giant black hole forming if Andrew didn't put regular coins back in! It's like dividing by zero!

It's nothing that severe, you just retroactively cancel all wishes obtained by the original tosser of said coins.

I'm going to have to cite the 'Goonies' again...

"This was my wish and it didn't come true"

That is what you need to say as you come up for air

I would have gladly reached in to get them and then replaced them with the same amount plus a few more modern coins....
