jess, these keyboard divers aren't ready to do a 35 foot cave dive, let alone a 350 foot one. they don't understand what it is like to hike miles into the jungle in scorching heat and getting dehydrated before making a deep dive. they've got the MGD in one hand and the bong in the other. i would say that they are not even qualified to carry your tanks to the water, so you better leave that to the pros as well. just focus on K tunnel. scott >From: "Jess Armantrout" <armantrout@wo*.at*.ne*> >To: "Barbara Peterson" <nocturne_cvs@ya*.co*>, <cavers@cavers.com> >Subject: Re: Bent Jill >Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 21:33:47 -0600 > >hey, try to get the whole story before you make a complete and utter >blithering idiot of yourself. > >I got minor skin bends on the dive, dove the next two days and flew home on >the third.
