EXCELLENT!  Great job Brian!  Ya know there was a research facility
quite like that, except it was more like a boat that would flood certain
sections and tip itself verticle and was used in some kind of oceanic
reasearch.  I don't recall, but I don't think Woods Hole had any
involvement with it.  I think *maybe* MIT, but it has been years.
