 Mike, the Florida State Museum of Natural History has a big display on this 
topic, and the guy you see in our films on this topic is the archeologist
there. 
We take it all to him and other scientists. We film what we see very closely, 
and send him the tapes - he then tells us what to do.

 They have several big digs going on - nothing that requires our diving
talents. 
For the stuff that does require us, we do whatever they ask . That stuff on the 
Learning Channel was done with the Museum.
