Because the USDCT had a well planed media hype and confused the lines 
between what we (the WKPP) have done and what they have done.

They could have saved a lot of money by just producing a map from the 
data published on our website. Of course, maybe that's what they did_ 
it's hard to tell.

Did you actually read this to see how stupid it is? Because of the CF 
that occurred this Winter we have been asked to keep the number of 
people at Wakulla down to a minimum. In spite of having a minimum 
(albeit, well trained and motivated) team this weekend we did manage 
to send a crew out to 7,500'. No one got bent, no one toxed, and no 
one died- just the way we like it. Not all the team members live in 
Tallahassee or are divers. I seriously doubt that we'll ever see more 
than half the members at any one time.

We did nothing to "sabotage" the Wak2 project. We simply called 
attention to the fact that the were unqualified, untrained, and 
illequiped to pull off their advertised goals. Slander (technically, 
you should have said "liable") involves making knowingly false 
statements with malicious intent. I think the record of what actually 
occured vindicates us on that point.
