While you're on the subject of lost at sea war stories and weenie images.  A 
girl friend of mine who lives in Lake City, FL while vacationing in Cozumel 
came up from a drift dive with her buddy to find they had drifted too far 
from the dive boat upon surfacing.  They couldn't swim against the swift 
current so they waited for the dive boat to retrieve them.  They waited and 
waited until they eventually floated out of site of the dive boat, nor did 
the dive boat come looking for them.  They floated around in the Gulf for 3 
days!  The thing that saved them was their big pink fins they put on their 
hands to wave at a passing plane who caught site of the unusual color on the 
ocean surface and reported it.  True story and amazing story, Dustin Clesi 
at Steamboat can verify this one.

So I guess the moral of this story is that fashion sense can take on new 
meaning in a potentially life threatening situation.  So be careful and 
alert out there folks.

Safe Dives,
Dawn (SalvanD@wa*.co*)
