Capt.  Jacques-Yves Cousteau passed away, in Paris, at age 87, of
a heart failure: At this end, we feel  both  proud  (because  The
Capt.  was our childhood heroe)  and  share  the  deepest  sorrow
with our French colleagues and France as a whole.

The  Capt.   had  fought  in  WWII,  invented the SCUBA, designed
submersibles and  uw-laboratories  and,  in  his  many  films and
books, showed a great team spirit and the beauty and misteries of
the sea to hundreds of millions of human beings.

Sante' Capt.!!
