Jerry,

>>You said" I can also prove that you have been certifing nitrox students
without issuing the final exam"

I never denied it. I was always under the impression that IANTD waived final
exams for certified Divemasters and higher for the basic nitrox course. When
Patty Mount informed me differently, I corrected the problem immedatly. I
made a mistake, but unlike you, I admit it, and I corrected it. I've been
teaching IANTD since 1990, and when standards change, sometimes it takes time
for the new ones to get implemented. No excuse here, just the way it is.

>>You said "The facts remain the same. I came to you for a basic nitrox
course.	  After taking the course you refused to certifiy me.
 because I was helping another store to get into nitrox.

Your so misguided and confused it ain't funny. You are not even close to the
facts. And do us all a favor, keep your whining to private E-mail. You are a
classic wanna be, and have no business teaching tech diving at all.


Here are a few of your quotes right off the tape. THis one is regarding the
store that listed you as their technical instructor (prior to you even taking
a basic nitrox course!).

"they were assembling their valves for their mixing panel on the same table
where his son was cleaning paintball guns with 3 in 1 oil all over the bench.
yeah, it may come out ok in the end if it doesn't explode first"

This is the same store you  want to work for???? And here is another quote of
yours  "if I see an instructor do something dangerous, I just look the other
way"

On tape you dope. You know what, I am going to call up Sting Ray divers and
invite them over to my place to see what you say behind their back. You are
so dumb it aint funny. You are perhaps the stupidest person I have ever met.
And you teach Scuba diving??? With your attitude it's only a matter of time
until you get someone seriously injured or killed. 

This is my last public posting on this matter. You got something to say to
me, say it to my face-you know where I am. And before you come, remember, I
won't change my opinion of you. Leopards do not change the color of their
spots-know what I mean??? You must have done a good job bullshitting Stuart
Mausch at ANDI. Better he be liable for you then IANTD or TDI. Do me a
favor-put on your PADI MSDT hat and pound your chest so you feel good. 

Stop crying and go diving. 

Raimo.
