Thanks for the info. Friday, Tim Miller is a well respected man and much admired.

Thank you so much for this "gift" today. I had figured you to be a reporter a few weeks back, but now I know who you really are...an angel. Please let Tim know what an inspiration he is.Yesterday, I “outed myself” on another thread here by explaining my connection to TES and Tim Miller, and also my personal commitment to the effort to find little Caylee. Here is the significant part of that post:
I am a member of TES's Board; I'm TES's largest financial contributor; and Tim Miller is a dear friend. I am so committed to finding Caylee that this year I contributed enough to finance more than half the total cost of all our (TES's) searches for Caylee prior to November.
However, my contributions were nothing compared to the WSleuths who donated money they could scarcely afford or who were waiting for their Social Security checks to arrive so they could donate again. God, I was totally humbled by this kind of generosity and willingness to sacrifice. I used to call Tim at night and read him some of those posts. He would get choked up (which I'd never heard happen prior to the Blanchard Park fiasco.)
If you can believe that, then you'll be able to understand how horrible I felt when these same people felt they'd been swindled by TES and only Leonard had come through for them.
I didn’t tell you in that message that Tim has kept up with many of the threads and posts here, including some that were understandably painful for him to read . You would be surprised at how impressed he’s always been with you here—with your dedication to separating fact from fiction, your willingness to commit your time and your considerable talents and to one united goal: Getting at the truth of what happened to Caylee. FWIW, I was with him in October at our Orlando hotel when another TES member handed him a printout of your map and cell phone pings. He wasn’t just impressed, he was also delighted. He showed it to LE and we used it!
Early this morning, shortly before the media got wind of the possible discovery of Caylee’s body, Tim phoned me to tell me the news, along with the fact that (official’s name withheld by me) said they’re sure it’s Caylee. I replied that everyone at WS was going to be beyond excited when they finally heard all that. Tim replied, “Go ahead and tell them. They deserve to be the first to know.”
Unfortunately, I couldn’t get on our darned website in time to break the news to you, or to confirm that no matter what LE says publicly, Tim said to tell you, don’t fret—it is Caylee.”
I just spoke to him again this afternoon, and explained I couldn’t get on WS site in time to give you this morning’s news. He’s going to continue keeping me informed about anything he learns in Orlando so that I can post it here—exclusively for you.
In the meantime, he said to tell you this: Months ago, TES did attempt to search the area where Caylee’s remains were found even though the area was mostly under water. In fact, he borrowed a special four wheel ATV offered to us by a helpful citizen, which was then driven through what appeared to be shallow water. And sank out of sight!
As you know, the one risk that trained searchers cannot take is that of damaging or destroying the very evidence they’re trying to recover. Tim said that if the plastic bag found today had been trampled by one of our horses, or run over by the ATV, the bag would have ruptured and the contents exposed and scattered, possibly/probably never to be found. He’s relieved that he called of the search of that area when he did or today’s discovery might never have happened.
He also said to remind you (half-jokingly) that he was right about at least one other thing: Caylee’s remains were not in the river at Blanchard Park. 
Oh, and in case you’re wondering about the ATV that was ruined when it sank, we naturally had to pay the owner for it--$10,000.
That’s all for now. Hopefully I will have other information to give you as the hours pass, and that I’ll be able to access our site when I do.
Tim sends his gratitude along with this message, and a request that you take just a moment to say a prayer for George and Cindy.
Hey, if he can forgive them, we certainly should be able to as well. (This comment is mine, not Tim’s.) I’m working on it, but my heart isn’t as open as his, I fear.
More answers from Tim for you:
1) The garbage bag found today is black, not white.
2) Caseys actual reaction to the news of todays discovery: Her face turned red, she crumpled to her knees, and said, Oh God, this cant be happening!
3) This morning when Nick called Tim to give him a heads up, he said, Tim, weve found our girl. Theres such tenderness in the way he phrased that, I think.
4) Today is Tims birthday, and I think this discovery is Gods birthday present to him and a gift to all of us. And as "icing on the cake" today near Houston, TES searchers recovered the bodies of a man and woman whose car was found in 12 feet of water. Now, on this Houston recovery, I'm a little uncertain of my details, because we had a horrible cell phone connection. But I'm sure about the other items above.
Warm regards.
I love Tim Miller. I barely knew of him before Caylee went missing...and now he's one of the people I admire most in this world.
Thanks Friday for this............I really appreciate it. I guess I owe Tim an apology and be assured I will make it about TES not searching that area well enough. I was one of the ones who felt it should have been searched better, but when I was there in November, a lot of it was underwater.
We did drive in that area and even walked around some, but that was not an area we had mapped well, and when we asked we were been told it was searched before and was on the schedule for TES, so we never went into it to search. We knew about the find of the teenagers with the rope and the bucket and thought it a very viable area, but "thought" it had been searched when that was found.
I am sorry we didn't map that area first, because we know children are usually buried within less than a mile of their homes. It just wasn't to be at that time. The timing now is the right time.
I do believe this was divine intervention today and I thank God for his intervention.
Tell Tim HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!
