Dear Richard,
Yep.  I got one of those submersible thingies.  It's called the subPack.  
They have a website www.thesubpack.com.  It worked for me, because the bears 
had no idea my food was hanging over a ledge suspended in the lake.  but 
there was some leakage, and if I didnt have my food in ziplocks inside the 
subPack, it would have been very messy.  I think they're working on a 
no-brainer foolproof waterproof closure for next year.
Keep on truckin

 Yup--bears just wanna eat and get fat and take care of their young
 
 - -they have no axes (PI) to grind...
 
 time to move on I think, to something else...we have laid
 all the "bear facts" out for everyone to see...just be prudent with you 
food--
 there is a new submersible thingy I saw-- maybe that was here? You put
 all your food in it and stick it under water..seems like it might
 work as we all try to stay near water..
