: Yes, I called her the "Fritz". It was an attempt at humour refering to an earlier post. Some of you probably got the joke. Others are probably so bitter about their lives that they lashed out like a wounded child striking at a loved one who only means the best for them.
: As for the AKELEY, I agree, she doesn't get the attenion she deserves. Having spent many hours over her, doing remote survey and aiding divers who doucument her via video, I have come to really appreciate her. Not only can I name her lost crew, I can tell you where their bodies washed ashore, including Captain Stretch.

: : : : You are correct. The AKELEY was found by mistake. I know its not near as interesting as the time you...ah...eh...the time you...er...
: : : : What is it that you've done again? Oh yeah, thats right, you heard some guy was making a movie about the FRITZ or something and your angry with the people who are interested in shipwrecks or something.
: : : : I think we got the gist of what you were saying from your first couple posts. Since then you've added nothing new.
: : : : "Those who can do, do. Those who can't, critique"

: : : : Your friend,
: : : : Ross Richardson

: : : : : : Whatever shipwreck you have a question or interesting information about.

: : : : : : Ross

: : : : : I guess I didn't realize that there was a PANEL OF EXPERTS just waiting to answer my questions! Oh BOY!
: : : : : By the way, how's that fundraising going? We all know how expensive that MSU ROV can be to borrow, huh? Oh, those botched photos of the HC AKELEY weren't YOUR fault... you found the AKELEY by accident, right?
: : : : : Wait... maybe I'm mistaken: it's probably another hare-brained attempt to find the CHICORA I'm thinking of!!
: : : : : P.S. - Drift theory? A little advanced for you isn't it?

: : : FRITZ? Are you serious? You're the "director" of the MSRA and you spell it FRITZ??
: : : Wow, I hope you had somebody proofread your grant proposals!
: : : - S
: : : P.S. - It's FITZ... FITZ. Oh, and what I do for a living will soon become quite clear.

: : Oh, one last thing: I simply MUST comment on your notion that the HC AKELEY isn't "interesting" to me.
: : Well, aside from Captain Stretch, can you name the other members of his crew the night she went down?
: : - S

You've all got a lot to learn. Better get started!
