    What ever became of the "Diving Saucer" 
used by Cousteau and company back in the
60's?  Is it still in use?  In a museum?  Or did
it get scrapped?

Don't think the Pasha ever threw anything away. The Saucer was in storage in 
Singapore when Calypso met her end. Since then, all the gear has been 
returned to France for display at New Rochelle (along with Calypso). The Sea 
Fleas and some other bits and pieces are in Virginia, last I heard. In 
storage, or so they say.
