  If you get this anywhere around 6:00 am before it changes, you will
see some serious rain going on over Wakulla and Leon Counites. Gee, too
bad. 

  The "usdct" has been at Wakulla 29 days - more access that the WKPP
has had in three years. In that time, all they have done is screw up and
lie about it. We could habve done a bumch more diving and gotten some
results.

  The cave cleared in October. That is three months ago. These guys have
no excuse now. They have not run the "mapper", and my bet is it never
happens. I will go one further and say that with the water dark , they
will have a serious accident this week or next, and the project will
fold. IF they try to dive B Tunnel, they will get severely bent and will
never even be able to ge to the end of that - a mere mile of diving is
crystal clear spring water. This one they will have to call a ten hour
bottom time to be in keeping with that they have done so far.

  Now we will see how good these guys are. When they can't handle this,
they can try Sally Ward where they scerewed up already . My bet is they
can not get to the end of the line there either. The paradox of Sally is
that where it will connect is the downstream of the upstream ,not the
down stream of the downstream. It wil connect to B Tunel , not A Tunnel. 

  I guess thes guys don't have all the maps, and I can not remember what
I did with them, but they say they are better at this than we are, so
following our lines to "explore" should not be too much trouble for
them. 

  My bet it no more than 2 weeks to shutdown.
