[StBernard] Removing Soil from Lexington?

[Westley Annis]

Interesting what you have said about your brass and pewter items.  I did not
live in Lexington, but mine had the same results.  I also just picked up a
brass small jewelry box recently from the house.  When I brought it home to
clean it, it was so bad I just put it in the water and detergent to get the
mud off.  When I went back about 30 minutes later, the sink was filled with
small white pieces of some strange substance.  Needless to say, I threw it
away and washed the sink with bleach, etc.

	Where on Bradbury are they removing soil? Are they removing soil
just 
	from Right of Ways and public servitudes or are they entering
personal 
	property and removing lawns without the owner's permission? Since I
have 
	to live away, I'd like to know? BTW, the various Brass or Pewter
items 
	that I picked up in Sep, from inside my house, that I have recovered

	from the 8+ inches of Mud and "Gunk" were significantly affected by
some 
	sort of chemical reaction leaving them very discolored, pitted and,
in 
	some cases, the raised lettering was eaten away. Interesting
chemical 
	reaction?
