Buried in this story is the fact that this guy left GPS coordinates in his suicide post that sent 20 people running around a park with shovels looking for his buried gold coin collection, ala "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World". Great final prank- cheers to you, Martin Manley.
"...And it appears Manley
may have even played a practical joke to tweak the greedy in his long
farewell. In the section of his site detailing his collection of gold
and silver coins, a random set of GPS coordinates appears, along with a
tiny thumbnail image of Overland Park Arboretum & Botanical Gardens.
Police say about 20 people, some with GPS units, metal detectors and shovels, showed up at the gardens and started digging. But the joke was on them -- Manley's family told police he had given the gold away."
