Mystery of San Antonio tree may be solved

SAN ANTONIO Officials may have solved the mystery of a San Antonio tree
that's gurgled water from its trunk for months.

The site has attracted a stream of pilgrims who consider it holy water.

The San Antonio Express-News reports city water system officials shut
off service to Lucille Pope's home -- and found that the tree stopped
leaking.

Her son, Lloyd Pope, says authorities think the roots had gotten into
the waterline.

Well, duh. Pressurized water had to be coming from somewhere. Ya think
the miracle junkies would have been as eager had the roots pierced the
septic line?
