joe bastardi, joe, every time we get on an airplane aren't we told about the seats being flotation devices. wouldn't they be floating at this point? >> well, it has been a long time since this crash. remember there is a lot of variances in the weather conditions in the last ten or 12 days in the area where we expect the crash to be. so where could they possibly be? if you had a couple of big storms, that area of the ocean is the equivalent in the north atlantic and pacific, where you get the fantastic storms that go through with very high winds. as the wind blows out of the southwest and shifts out of the northeast right after it could be almost anywhere right now given how long that this has occurred. >> yes, joe, let me ask you this. what are the weather conditions normally like there? i know we were told -- we just checked in with australia, they say they're a little bit better. from what i understand and people i spoke to, i have been reading all day, usually the swellins are really bad, really high. what can you tell us about the usual conditions? >> well, things get bad in the winter
