Presently the folks who are still searching for the deceased are:
Terry Tysall : Ex US Navy Seal, IANTD, NSS CDS NACD Cave Diving Instructor,
IANTD Trimix instructor, Technical EANx instructor trainer, IANTD rebreather
instructor trainer, one of the two divers to have dived the Fitzergerald(500
feet 38degree water), one of the first two divers to have dived the Atlanta
400 feet, and an allaround very accomplished and highly respected
professional diver.

Larry Green: A IANTD, NSS CDS and NACD cave instructor, IANTD Trimix instructor,
IANTD Technical EANx instructor trainer and IANTD rebreather instructor
trainer. He has about 18 years of cave diving experience and about 7 years
of trimix diving experience. He was among the first to ever use trimix in
caves. Larry is extremeley well respected within the cave and technical
diving community both as an educator and explorer.

Joe Odom has joined them with rebreathers for searching without creating
silt. Joe is a TDI trimix instructor trainer and rebreather instructor
trainer. Joe is a NSS CDS cave diving instructor. 

Several others have made numerous dives into the system.

Todate they have grid off the entire cave in 3 foot sections in each
direction. This is the floor and walls and ceiling, they have searched the
debris pile, they have used magnometers, they have used the airforces bomb
detection devices(these were used to try to locate the diver by his metal or
magnetic signature) They have pushed the instrumentation into the crevices
that they could not fit into and they have searched the deepest point of 263
feet (on trimix 10 50) . Having recovered numerous bodies in my career in
the 60's and 70's I did the majority of recoveries in caves until I totally
burned out on it. I would say they have done an outstanding job and
represent as professional an approach as possible by outstanding
knowledgeable professional divers, and that very little else could be done.
Yet they continue with strong dedication.  

Every since this effort commenced they have requested all help that could be
mustered. Larry stated yesterday that they would gladly accept the help of
George and the pros he refers to.

How about it George are you going to help out?
