'As of this posting'...... could also put it in present time to emphasize-- any one claiming to have retrieved it before this date (over this last season).... it is still there.....

It also seems to back up the idea that Forrest has a way of checking the status of the chest.

It also seems to back up the idea that Forrest has a way of checking the status of the chest. So what is that or why? Is it because.... *He is so certain it 'can't be found' *He has a method in the chest, like the IOU plan, that he feels confident will be used by the finder *He believes the finder will let him know via email, by returning the bracelet, or other... *He is able to check on it in some way? (what way though) *OTHERS? |

My best guess is bracelet + webcam (but not pointed at the treasure. So for example only - an instruction in the chest to tie a ribbon on something that is within sight of a specific webcam).

That's a very creative thought..... so you are suggesting inside the Treasure Chest is a note from Forrest saying if you have found the treasure, please 'tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree' or something of that nature...  I like it.... |

I understand it's speculation... almost all is in the Chase.... but it is with hope some things speculated on will eventually be realized as fact- once the chest is found....... Does Forrest have to be alive for title to be granted? Do you know what the legal issues are with that? |

Does Forrest have to be alive for title to be granted? Do you know what the legal issues are with that? I'm sure he has a will for that. My question is who do you contact if he passes before the treasure is found? |

Not this particular speculation.... but other... like speculation on WWWH or hoB...etc...etc... |

I like it.... The treasure could be found by someone who wishes to keep it secret, even from Fenn... (not me, by all means). So I don't think he would rely on a finder to let him know. Also, he says to not stick around... But tarry scant with marvel gaze, Just take the chest and go in peace. |
