Subject: Re: TOP 10 REALLY STUPID THINGS IN TEC DIVING

aqualad,

let me know when you graduate to aquaman.  then you can come back here with 
your polemic opinions that are based on the absolute worst garbage being 
spread out there.  do you even know this george guy, or do you just employ 
mccarthyism tactics on everyone you can't successfully out argue?  
trey@ne*.co* probably does listen to george too much.  based on your 
comments, it is obvious that you do absolutely none of this kind of diving, 
just like the rest of the strokes out there in weenieland.  why is it that 
all the wannabes are the ones that continually try to challenge what we do?
