If you'd like I can bring it to the get together and play some of it on Jonathan's big screen! Sweet!

It would be a nice background scene/music!

They were gifts from my sister who has a degree in environmental conservation - a professor in one of her classes showed clips from time to time. I think you may be able to find it at some HMVs or a similar place. Here is a link to some info:

I'll bring it to the party and anyone who wants to borrow it can. I also have checked before and found that the Calgary Public Library has the series.

I have watched them all. They are awesome.
If you can get a hold of them you won't be dissapointed!

Although they are genuine images of some rather strange deep-sea creatures, these photographs have nothing to do with the Indian Ocean tsunami. They date from mid-2003 and were taken as part of the NORFANZ voyage, a joint Australian-New Zealand research expedition conducted in May-June 2003 to explore deep sea habitats and biodiversity in the Tasman Sea. These photographs can be viewed on Australia's National Oceans Office web site.

Strange looking creatures all the same

Seems even some of the big names have been fooled by this email...
