I was told also that the Australian home-built rebreather group, AARG, had an article on it in their journal recently. >Hey, how's Wakulla 2 going? The project wrapped back at the end of Feb., as you know. Mapper data is being processed, slides and video are being edited. Publishing and broadcasting will take place in the next couple of months when NG has completed those tasks and fit the material into their schedules. >I hear it was a spectacular success. It was successful in many ways. Everyone would have liked to accomplish more, but then that's always the case with diving projects. We had some great days and some terrible days, as everyone already knows. > The web site said you added line to the WKPP runs and everything. I didn't, but the team's exploration divers had a lot of fun adding some line in places other divers had missed, as you already know. On the 1st project I learned more about karst environments than anything else (being totally ignorant of the subject back in '87), but on this project learned more about people than anything else. I had a lot of fun too during the 3 months of the project. Shot some stills and vid, learned a lot and did a lot of new things. Made some excellent new friendships and spent time with old friends I love, respect, and admire a great deal. Saw both wondrous and very sad things and made many dives in one of the most amazing and beautiful places on the planet. Got access to two sinks I hadn't been in (one virgin but didn't go, one only dived a little bit over a decade ago and goes) and found another virgin cave system at a third location elsewhere in the WKP (still going last I heard). Opened the eyes of hundreds of park visitors to the vulnerability of our water resources while explaining the project, the equipment, and the procedures to them, and had a truly memorable and valuable time.
