John it's not egos as much as greed. the arkies have a fear that they will not get funding for there phony attempts at survey's & there woefully laking attempts at recovering the "money items that they are really after. the Salvors on the other hand have tried to comply with the rules & have been stabed in the back repeatedly over the money. just my 2 cents hank In a message dated 97-01-25 16:13:48 EST, you write: << Subj: Re: Archaeologists Date: 97-01-25 16:13:48 EST From: jlydon@zi*.ne* (John Lydon) Reply-to: jlydon@zi*.ne* (John Lydon) To: DFountain@ao*.co*, wreckdiver@wreckdiver.com D, personally, I'd rather see the bell in it's "original" shape, style, whatever you'd like to call it. I guess the tourists didn't think it was pretty enough, so they changed it. In either case, I can't see how the historical value has changed, whether it's painted or polished, it's still a memorial to the crew of the Edmund Fitzgerald. The Archaeologists "always" seem to cry foul when things aren't done they way they deem fit. Kind of a shame really. Divers and Archaeologists working in tandem could do a lot of good work, but egos? get in the way?? I'd love to see the memorial, maybe sometime soon I'll take a road trip out to the Great Lakes and see it.
