Actually, as a kid I did a lot of SCUBA diving here on the lake, and looked forward to seeing Jacques Cousteau and the
Calypso on TV. I would dream about being able to go to the places he did and dive the locations he did, with the not so rare dream of diving with the man himself. Somewhere along the way I learned / heard / discovered the word bathyscape and somehow it has stayed with me. Having seen the item in question nearly everytime we drive Rte 11, it popped back in my mind several years ago now, and stayed there. And yes, I do remember the
Trieste (first hand)! I still want to know when it (our local item) was last in the water.
Geez, at times I think I remember when sand was discovered!
Oh, and the IQ thing...I think I may have been able to have taught Einstein everything he knew, and my wife would think I would have to look up to see "zero IQ", so it's somewhere in the middle, I guess.
