Do you happen to know when they'll be looking for divers again. I've applied once a month for I think the last 6 or 7 months....
 
Well since NASA funding is in the toilet, and the shuttle is scheduled to wrap up operations this year, and there are no plans for anything else, and since lots and lots of folks think maybe non-governmental agencies could do the job better faster cheaper and the divers working at the NBL are looking for jobs themselves, I'd guess, hmmmm...Never?

I've got a few friends working at NBL and the outlook is not good.

Thank Barry for this and remember when he was campaigning we were "going back to the moon" and "$$$$ for science." JUst words, just speeches.
Oh, how elections have consequences.
