Bill Saturno Quotations

We didn't tell anybody until March of 2002 ? that's when the April National Geographic was released with the first article about the site.

I didn't want to tell her what an idiot I had been ? how I had put her and our family at risk.

We made a series of bad decisions, one after another after another ? and not getting food and water when it was right there was the last one. The first one was not turning back at the end of the first day.

We found two limes and split them between the six of us. Yum.

It was the height of the dry season and we set off early in the morning on what was supposed to be a 3-hour drive followed by a 6-kilometer walk. The drive itself eventually became 12-1/2 hours because we had to cut our way through the jungle and create a whole new road to where we thought we were going.

I headed into the looters tunnel to cool off, shined my light around and there it was. Only 80 centimeters were exposed (about 2-1/2 feet), the size of a small TV set.
