Trey (you are a yahoo ,that is what  "old timers call them )or what you call 
stroke , What a bonehead. you will never be one tenth the cave diver that 
Rory was. i dont care how far you go, or how many scooters you strap to your 
butt or how much line you lay, you will never be even remotely close to him. 
He is a true pioneer, and cave explorer. he cave dived for the reason most of 
us do "we love it'. you on the hand have some ego deficiency that must be 
bolstered by harassment ,bragging, belittlement,and apparently a lot of 
resentment (i bet you got beat up a lot as a kid). you were not around in the 
beginning, you missed the first twenty five years of cave diving. most of the 
"ideas" you think are so new have been around long before you came on the 
scene. people were wrapping hoses 25 years ago as well and many  of the other 
things,you seem to think are "original ideas". Bill Gavin , and Bill Main are 
long after the fact. Most of what they do they owe to the "true NACD" 
pioneers (circa 1970-1985),long after you are gone and you are not even a 
whisper in the wind, people will still remember Rory. if you have some bone 
to pick with dustin,et al, then go ahead. for you to diminish Rory in any way 
is totally unacceptable. i have sent you things from time to time privately, 
but this time you crossed the line, i am here to tell you and the world what 
a pathetic, sad,little man you are. you are such a joke, it disgusts me.you 
are nothing but a "checkbook cave diver". Rory was a peer and mentor to me 
and many,many others.YOU SHOULD GO AWAY.DON'T GO AWAY MAD JUST GO AWAY.
I have been "doing it right" long before you 
ever thought to say that, as amatter of fact you probably took that 
expression from an "oldtimer".

THE WORLD HAS LOST A TRUE GENTLEMAN ,PIONEER, AND TRUE CAVE DIVER, IT SADDENS 
ME GREATLY

side note, Bill Gavin , straighten this big loser out on this please.
