Scott, I have never seen an "accident analsyis" by the cave diving
"community" that even got close to identifying the problems other than
by Parker Turner, and as you can see by everything that happened since
and still happens, nothing has chnaged , nor will it change.

What will happen is that the idiots will not be allowed to dive. End of
story. You are wasting your time with the NSS or the NACD. We have two
real organizations that do not have any of these problems, and will be
the only survivors in the long run.

We can tell it like it is - they can not, and obviously you can not as
evidenced by your recent Jackson Blue schmooze job where two strokes
left dead buddy in cave. I guess it is not nice to hurt strokes'
feelings when the kill somebody.

The sooner they shut the whole thing down to strokes, the better.
