I took the liberty of cleaning up your dropping code. Should make your program easier to navigate.
Code: 
function dropping()
   for i = 1, 15 do
       turtle.select(i)
       turtle.dropUp()
   end
end

, already kind of made it better, but im having a new problem.

im trying to make the turtle dig up sand and gravel.
when ever it mines gravel with this code (line 223) it digs the first column of gravel, digs the first block of the second column (or block) but then, even if the column of gravel would have gravel still on it, it will bitch out, and turn around and try to escape. >;l damn turtle. if someone could help me, id apri

sorry.
it was a matter of timing, as the 0.25 second delay wasn't enough for the turtle to detect that the falling sand or gravel turned from an entity to a block (i think)
that still wouldn't explain why it ran off, but it works with a 0.5 sec sleep.
