I love you internet experts. WKPP here????? That biggest mouth on the net wouldn't come here, JJ, well like we all say, it would have been good to see him, but obviously not this time. Don't come on with the crap about them not wanted here. The diving community, Stroke, DIR dickhead or whoever, wanted to see a range of people, not one who bignotes himself on the net. JJ is more than welcome here. Brett wasn't even here. Get your facts right. The people speaking at the show, "Americans & Australians" were all professional, polite and entertaining. Not like some we could mention. to sum up, Blow it out your Arse! Jess Armantrout wrote: > David, > Let me just say you are either very naive or an idiot; probably both. Not > about TDI?
