<div><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3">And speaking of Idabel, have you thought about multiple spheres? I talked to Karl in New Orleans a couple of years ago, and did some figuring afterwards. A couple of intersecting 5' spheres with a free flooding sail and a few small cameras might get you a 5-tonnish sub. Do the big Perry style viewport in front with maybe some 12-inchers on either side in both hulls? Maybe a dome hatch/conn on top in the back sphere? It might need some foam to float, but that isn't much of a problem these days. Hmm.</font></div>
