garrett, i appologize for taking this public i guess i'm used to these conversations being on he list. however i did quote you correctly - coppies everything you said. it's interesting that you don't want to discuss the Monitor, since it directly applies to your comments. the divers that i know would be happy to place there artifacts on public display & there are obviously thousands of people intersted in seeing them. example of that is the demonstrations at most of the dive show around the country. take a look at the books that have been printed about the wreaks in different areas, most of them have artifacts displayed in them- do you think the people that see them there have the ability or the desire to see them in water. the museums have taken a stand out of pure selfeshness & political pressure to not accept artifacts from divers. as far as the Edmond Fitz is concerned even if you are one of the few divers capable of diving it (which i question since i don't know you) how many thousands of other divers are missing out on getting an oportunity to see the bell in the water? not many i think. i don't appreciate the name calling & i try not to respond in kind but you obviously miss the point of the artifact "hunter". hank -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
