Thank you.

I plan to go take a look at it! some of the best art is that art that mimics nature so perfectly it does not look like art!

Thank you.

Ah, but those who will be able to see it, and know what they are looking at, will be truly grateful.

Thanks again.

I would like to thank the dive community for thier outpouring of support for this project. Many People have told me what a wonderful thing we have done. There was something that happened with this project though that was also wonderful. That is four divers this week made cave diving history. They made cave diving history not by going further or going deeper or by inventing some new gear. Four divers made cave diving history by making the world a better place. And that makes me proud to be part of this project.

sent me some photo of the project to post. They include in water pics of the process including the controlled silt outs. Also Jill suggested on the second day to use some of the extra clay as war paint to attack the vandelism

I went to Cow this weekend, and looked at Michael Angelo's work. All I can say is "Fantastic!". If you didn't know anything had been done there, you probably wouldn't even notice anything but the neat clay bank.
