:) they are everywhere folks. Saturday a spearfisherman off south africa was swallowed whole by a 20 footer. 4000 pounds+. His buddy speared it and monday it was seen by a group of wreck divers still towing his bait float and the remnants of a trigger mechanism. The water went dark, they looked up to see it hovering over them "as big as a boxcar". But nobody can hunt it down because killing Great Whites is illegal in "Sarth Effrica".

One of the big news stories right before 9-11 was shark attacks in Florida.
BTW, Breaking News? This happened last Sunday. It's been in all the papers.

I think I hooked one of these fellows out at Lake Thompson. He got away.
