  Not on my watch , but we (WKPP) are no longer involved anyway.
In case nobody has noticed, we hold the permits and we are the
Wakulla Project - the one and only. We dive scuba, we dive 
hogarthian, we dive WKPP rules, methods, equipment , techniques
and personnel, and there are no, nor will there ever be , any 
exceptions to any of this, no matter who runs this project. We
have asked that our permits be extended as long as it takes to 
get the job done, and the "job" is a lot more than Wakulla. We
have interlocking permits throughout the region from three branches 
of government and grants from two more. We are working on several
C.A.R.L. proposals on behalf of the State of Florida, we are working
on three films, and possible a fourth, depending on the outcome of
discussions I held today with one filmmaker. We are woring studies 
for two universities, and the Stae. We have laboratories set up
on site and in Tallahasse.  

   I would suggest that any questions about what is really going on in
Leon Sinks or Wakulla be directed at the WKPP - we have seventy members,
a solid twenty of which are on these lists.

   As long as we are addressing rumors , whoever the moron is who 
has spread some ridiculous rumor about the scooters we use can jump
right up and hear this: we have NEVER had a failure of a Bill Gavin
designed scooter, and that means we have not had a failure in the
four years we have been using these scooters. When someone can show
me the results of what they have done with some other scooter that 
matches ours, I will buy all they can sell me. In the meantime, if
you don't know what you are talking about, don't talk about us.

      Geroge Irvine , Director, WKPP
