Subject: HID lights

Anyone know why HID lights are so damned expensive?  I mean, a replacement 
HID bulb for a car headlight is about $30 bucks.  $600 to upgrade an EE 
light?  $3600 for dual HID lights from Light & Motion video housings?  You 
gotta be kidding me!  I could buy a mill and learn to make them cheaper in 
total myself, I would think.

Is this just a case of creaming the market or is there something else I'm 
missing.  Also, I want to start doing digital video underwater.  Any 
recommendations for cameras and housings, capable of technical  depths?  Is 
there a underwater video mailing list?  Thanks.

Cam
