[MR] Mary Rose video clip from BBC

[Garth G. Groff]

Noble friends,

This very interesting video clip on artifacts from the Mary Rose (Henry 
VIII's flag ship) has just appeared on the BBC web site: 
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8302152.stm . Featured in the video 
are some fascinating mundane items that would have belonged to the 
sailors who went down with the ship. The comb with the nits caught in 
the tines is famous (and has been shown recently in print sources), but 
unfortunately the resolution here isn't high enough to see the little 
buggers. Garb and gear fans will find this video very interesting.

Note that when the video finishes running, there are click links to two 
other related Mary Rose videos. Just in case you don't see them, here 
are the URLs: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8265219.stm and

Kind regards,
