monitors their progress under the microscope. >> not every week we will check on the slide to make sure they are growing how we expect them to. >> other strategies call for divers to plant bags with help scores or glue them directly to the underwater reef. while i'm sure which one will be the most successful, anticipation is building with work expected to begin a little later this summer. >> we get to be out there, doing this incredible work, seeing these sites recover, and really forging a path forward that we hope will be able to be used both regionally and across the globe. >> and for the national marine sanctuary, it's a chance to restore an ecosystem critical for supporting see life from abalone to rockfish and yard. soma -- sonoma state university are also lead partners in this

that is so much work? dan: we still have a landline at our house that we never use but we feel like we should. >> no wonder you don't return my calls. >> text to my landline. >> i sent 1000 and i never get a response. it is so much longer. karina: and if you mess it up? you start all over. dan: it is a fun novelty thing. >> i would put it in a living room somewhere. just as a conversation piece. just pretend i'm calling people i cannot talk right now. i'm sorry. i got to go. i'm sorry. karina: look at that. dan: that's this addition. you didn't choose your hairline. hot flashes, the flu, or that thing when your knee just gives out for no reason.
