Hey Steve -- If this is the e-mail I've heard about going around (pics weren't showing up for me), then it's not really true. The creatures are just amazing though...
Here's the link to the Snopes debunking page.
And here's the page with the actual discovery. |

If you check the 2nd link I posted above, you can see a lot more from the same voyage (check the links at the top of that page, "More Creatures" etc). My favorite is this one:

Yes they were discovered back in the late 90's in an expedition where they did some deep water netting. These are the pics frm that expedition.
