Divin' for half pay, eh? Poor buggers...makes me wish I could win Powerball and pick up the tab.

Still though, I'm sure they'll make up for lost wages by pocketing a piece o' swag or two on the muddy bottom....and no one's the wiser. :)

I hope there will be some more footage to see on the Discovery Channel after they are done or back on Under Sea Detective....

I posted this in Rabble ARousing but I thought I post it here too. This is from David Moore a friend and archeoloigst with the QAR project:

Well, TECHNICALLY we're back to work. First time to excavate on the

site since Oct 2004. Unfortunately, its only for this week. And only

reason they made decision to work at all is that the guy who found the

site back in '96 is raising holy hell with some of the folks in Raleigh

which essentially forced them into doing "something" on the site. We

did find the 23rd cannon on the site yesterday however, and a number

of ship's rigging elements and small iron cooking pot this afternoon

I know he's been frustrated lately with the buracracy surrounding the dig.
