Dr. Ballard mentioned his enthusiasm for "Internet 2." As this is not yet a widely known technology I thought a link
might be useful. After speaking with some friends who work in this area they suggest that the introduction of IPv6
will have as much or more of an impact as I2. What is that you ask? See the second link for more details but in short
it overcomes the impending IP address shortage and provides for even greater Internet accessability. Hope these
articles help.

Dear Friends:

I just want to say thank you to all those that organized the National Maritime Heritage Education Conference.
You did a fantastic job. I'd also like to thank the folks that attended our talk on Friday. I appreciate the kind words
of encouragement and advice. I'd also like to thank Michelle Damian our Chief PA for her work on the newly
posted children's exhibit. She did a great job.

As promised here are the links that I mentioned during my talk. I hope you find these useful and I encourage you all to
keep in touch and join us in bringing underwater archaeological research to the general public. I'd also like to thank the
Center for History and New Media at George Mason University and Dr. Mills Kelly for introducing me to these links.

Best regards and happy holidays.
