Did everyone see this from Dawn re Wakulla and Big D plans. In big D we
have bottles way down stream that need to come out, we have a giant lead
that needs to be explored in the main tunnel, we need to capture a
sample of the shrimp, we need to video some of the beginning of the main
tunnel, and whatever other explorations you guys want to do in there.
Just tell Dawn what you want to do. Cole needs to be on the bottle dive.

For Wakulla, I need to know what gas divers are coming so I can make the
most of it.

For safeties, JJ and I will use our stuff in the way back of the cave,
but we need your stuff for the front of the cave . The only way we can
run open circuit dives in Wakulla is if it is paved with safeties. No
safeties, no open circuit. JJ has set the rules on this, and that is it.

We are only working the conduit this year while the weather holds up.
When that changes, we can do the clear stuff and the water dives, and
the monster spring side. When we get an extemely clear A Tunnel, we will
stay over on a Sunday and video it.

For now, we need to know where the real cave goes in Wakulla and Leon
sinks, while we have the chance, and that will be where all of our focus
goes. We will not be running multiple dive plans anymore : we need
everyone working on the same objective now.

Basicly, JJ and I could do this by ourselves, but we are going to make
dives in order to get everyone the experience, and so we can leapfrog
some fast long shots when we need to do so, and so we have a top team of
pros. 

I just need to know who the players are going to be, who we can count
on, and who we need to be spending our time teaching this, and who we
need to quit wasting our time on. 

Those who understand how to be a good dive buddy in every respect are
going to get the shot - we just demonstrated that last weekend - those
who want to argue with me are going to get shot.

To quote Chuck Norris, "Let's rock and roll".
