I caught this article on Tampa Bay Ch 13 the other day. It was a short video story and I noticed the fellow was using an Excal. It was a positive article for the MD'ing community.

Here is the link to the original story, http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20070824/NEWS/708240550

I've cut and pasted a portion of the story below:

RETURN OF THE RING

'67 Stanley Cup championship ring found in Gulf
By CHRIS ANDERSON



[email protected]

SARASOTA -- Mark DesErmia searches for lost treasure each day with a parrot atop his shoulder, and the children on the beach always ask if he's a pirate.

He scours the Gulf of Mexico with an underwater metal detector up to 70 hours a week, and finds Rolex watches, diamond rings and enough wedding bands to increase the divorce rate. He once found a money clip holding $669. Another time, a set of teeth.

But nothing tops what the 44-year-old came across about three weeks ago: a Stanley Cup championship ring with an odd story behind it.
