Jesse,

They are incredibly bright lights, that I agree with.

I'll keep an open mind on this, but you're saying that an HID light will
allow one to see to some useful degree in a total siltout--chocolate milk? I
don't believe it, but I'd like to see it.

If it will work in the conditions that I describe, then I'll admit that you
were right. Low vis is not no-vis. "Almost no-vis" is not no vis.

Until otherwise proved, my advice to any cave diver is, don't give up your
line following skills just yet--or ever.

Later,

JoeL
