Mike,

I respect your decision to take a stand in what you believe, regarding THE
CURRENT STATE of training agencies, and resigning your affiliations.

I however deeply regret your decision to punish so many members of the cave
diving community by restricting access to Madison Blue. I have enjoyed
diving that system since my first visit in January 1993 and will miss it. 

respectfully,
Hal Christiansen
