Wednesday's Colbert Report had on Robert Pollard as a guest. He's the guy that actually found the Titanic. Apparently, from what I gathered, he was originally being employed by the American military to find two sunken submarines and recover the nuclear weapons still inside. But Pollard also knew that the Titanic was somewhere around the floor of the Atlantic where he was working and thought he could do double duty - since his own personal goal was the Titanic itself. He found them all in the end.
