Regarding Brownwood's Hot Wells, the theories proposed here are ludicrous to say the least. Since the originator of this baloney couldn't even get our town's name right, it's no surprise that he doesn't know anything about our town or the Hot Wells except what he's read online. I have been to the site of the Hot Wells many times. It has been closed for many decades but my dad showed me where it was when I was a kid and had my first detector. We hunted the area and I think I found a buffalo nickel or two and some wheat pennies. To clarify that poster's misinformation, the Hot Wells site is on the far south side of town and is about 3 miles from the downtown area where the KGC tunnel network is.
