John Quincy Adams
John Quincy Adams, our Sixth President,
to meet with Mole People, planned a descent
down to the center of Earth where they stayed.
Left office too soon...expedition not made.

"John Quincy Adams (1767-1848) American diplomat and
Sixth President of the United States of America 1825-1829.
No doubt U.S. presidents use their position of power to do
some strange things, but John Quincy Adams just may win
the award for the weirdest appropriation of tax dollars.
Believe it or not, John Quincy Adams, our Sixth President,
authorized an expedition to the center of the Earth to search
for the mole people who he believed inhabited the bowels
of the planet."
