"We're Off To See The Pirate!"

     I don't know if he's hoping to redefine "friend of Dorothy," but undersea explorer Barry Clifford calls the gold-dust-laden track connecting two section of the wrecked pirate ship Whydah  "the yellow brick road," and he'd bet his heart and mind there's a remarkable treasure at the end of it.  In a news conference only two days prior to Talk Like A Pirate Day, he showed what he's already found at the site and it's plenty impressive.

     Arrr.

On a sunken treasure related note, this is one of the best books I've ever read: Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea (ISBN-10: 080214425X) - it relates how treasure recovery can turn into a big business, and talks about some really interesting people. I hope you have the chance to read it.
