I should have bought commercial space, to advertise for my undersea campaign  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />   I put a link to Discovery's Shark Week 2003 pages <a href="http://www.lobi.com/bpaa" target="_blank">HERE</a> (yes, that was sneaky, wasn't it?)Anatomy of a Shark Bite Sunday, Aug. 10, 9 p.m. and midnight ET/PT Saturday, Aug. 16, 9 p.m. and midnight ET/PT Sunday, Aug. 17, 6 p.m. ET/PT    In 2002, shark behavioral scientist Erich Ritter was filming in the Bahamas with Discovery Channel when a bull shark bit his calf — a terrible accident caught on film from both above and below the water. Join us as we use other shark-attack footage and computer-generated imaging to explore how and why different breeds of sharks bite, and as Dr. Ritter watches and reflects on his nearly deadly encounter for the first time.   Diary of a Shark Man Tuesday, Aug. 12, 9 p.m. and midnight ET/PT Sunday, Aug. 17, 3 p.m. ET/PT    He hand-feeds bull sharks, swims with makos, and even considers the dangerous lemon shark his good friend.

Robo Shark  Wednesday, Aug. 13, 9 p.m. and midnight ET/PT Sunday, Aug. 17, 5 p.m. ET/PT    A 6-foot-long animatronic shark featuring onboard cameras, Robo Shark is designed to blend in with real sharks and capture never-before-seen wild shark behavior. Don't miss its amazing resulting footage, including the bizarre deep-sea thresher shark in the Philippines; giant whale sharks feeding off the coast of Belize; and deadly hammerheads, great whites and bronze whaler sharks in South Africa. Jaws of the PacificThursday, Aug. 14, 9 p.m. and midnight ET/PT Sunday, Aug. 17, 2 p.m. ET/PT    The great white shark was once thought to prefer only coastal waters; today, new data collected by satellite transmitters attached to the sharks indicate this ultimate predator actually makes transoceanic crossings. Come with us as we follow for the first time the mysterious great white on its long migration across the Pacific, where it reaches depths of 2,000 feet and travels up to 43 miles a day.

Join us as we use state-of-the-art satellite tagging, sonic tags and aerial surveys to provide insight into where, when and why sharks congregate — and how to avoid playing "shark roulette."</blockquote>
