Hey has anyone read the following article?

Or better yet has anybody read any details other than what is printed in the article. I figure it will be in a book before long. It is really cool to find $500 million in silver that is in international waters so that no particular government can lay claim to it. Talk about a divers dream...

Yes, I saw this on the news today. Wish it were me.

They had a picture of what looked like 50 or so 5 gallon buckets of this stuff. I would love to hear the story behind it. How it was recovered, found and other such things.

It is nice how much the companys stock price jumped after a find like that. I'll bet it is worth far more than 500 mil.
