Andrew Collins just e-mailed me a few minutes ago!
It was very kind of him to explain the situation to me.
This is what he said.


"Hi,

There is no conspiracy, simply human necessities. Paulina Zelitsky and Paul Weinzweig held out as long as possible for the best possible deal on world rights to release pictures and video footage of what had been found. I know, I was involved with the deal from Random House, and was to have ghost written the accompanying book, which would have been accredited to them (I was chosen since the agent working on the project was working with me also, and I had just released GATEWAY TO ATLANTIS, which pinpointed Cuba as the site of the main island of Atlantis). The figure on offer was six figures in pounds sterling (based on a sliding scale of what had been discovered), but Paulina Zelitsky and Paul Weinzweig refused the offer, wanting even more to fund their future expeditions. They hoped that NatGeo would top the offer. However, when finally the pair released video footage of what they had found it was deemed both of poor quality and not what was hoped, and since Zelitsky and Weinzweig had run out of money, a stalemate ensued. No further footage could be got, so the Random House offer (which they could have taken) was withdrawn. I have no idea what offer NatGeo made, but I suspect it was afterwards withdrawn also.
Zelitsky and Weinzweig had to go back to what they know best – treasure hunting and vessel salvage, and no one has heard from them since. They have simply vanished off the map.
Story ends.
This said, I firmly believe that prehistoric archaeology does await discovery off Cuba, and hopefully within the next year I will take part in a major expedition to identity suspected structures off both the north and south coasts of the island.
Cuba is by far the best candidate for Atlantis’s flag ship, and one day hopefully we will be in a position to prove that.
What exactly Zelitsky and Weinzweig discovered remains a mystery. Whether artificial structures, ballast from Russian submarines or natural features, we might never know. All theories are possible.

Regards,

Andrew Collins"

It looks like Paulina Zelitsky and Paul Weinzweig lost their chance at some funding for more exploration at the MEGA site. Too bad they didn't take the first offer. They may have found some good evidence if they went with Random House. If anyone is going to find undeniable facts about a sunken city near Cuba, in the near future, it will be Andrew Collins.




I just wanted to quote this email response that Ats member lostinspace got on 7/30/2008 from Andrew Collins, who wrote the book Gateway to Atlantis. Instead of a conspiracy, another possibility which is more boring but just as sad is that they just missed their opportunity for funding to go back to the site. So it could have been another case of bad timing, stifling bureaucracy, and judgmental people who weren't too open minded or interested in this discovery.

I would disagree, I would say it was a mistake based on grasping wants of the 'discoverers' and poor evidence that anything was there.

Hello, guys.

I am reviving this thread (the latest I could find) as it seems there is some new information re expedition of Pauline Zelitsky & the crew and apparent find of a submerged city within the Bermuda triangle (off the coast of Cuba).

As far as I got today, the following sites have reported this:

Peru Punto Com
Conmoción mundial:Hallaron la Atlántida bajo el tríangulo de las Bermudas.

Prensa Latina
Underwater City Found in Bermuda Triangle

Since I am at work and totally out of time, I would really appreaciate if anyone could look more into this (possible press releases, first hand accounts, photos, etc.), as the data/photos provided by the site is not really much.

Thank you!

Rehash of old reports.

Zelitski returned in 2005 or 2006, can't remember. No further evidence could be found and the robot malfunctioned.

Bah, my mistake.


No wonder this thread was made and died in the end, afterall.


Thanks, Harte.

But what your saying is that if it doesnt match Plato's account then it cant be true, but Plato was told the story from one of his ancestors, the lawmaker known as Solon, so it was already an old story and likely had been changed via chinese wispers over time....Not that im suggesting it HAS to be Atlantis, all im saying is that just because it doesnt match up with Platos account doenst mean Plato didnt have details wrong.

Id suggest checking out some stuff from Graham Hancock if you havent before, he's right on the pulse of this stuff.

As for land mass then you need to start to look into eustacy and isostatic rebound, ice loading and its effects on land mass, ice/water balance at the last glacial maximum (approx 21,000 - 17,00 depending on who your reading or what specifically your discussing about the LGM specifically as it is not a uniform process globally.
