A "Twilite zone" moment Graham, uncanny likeness, even the book cover picture looks like the rear is missing. So there is a fifth dimension ?.

I like the Cussler books.

Action! Secrets! Intrigue! Gadgets!

They were Tom Clancy before Tom Clancy was Tom Clancy!

Graham, since you introduced us to it, I've watched the end of Australis over the years on Google Earth: sad, but proof in the greater scheme of things nothing is permanent.

How true Steve

I have always said that about employment over the years [Smile]

that's why its important to enjoy each day, as the older we get the more we relize that "we" are definitely not permanent either [Smile]
