Subject: Re: Mike Webb is a Fake

I'm not sure who wrote this post but it is so absolutely rediculous that 
I can only assume it is a fake, but just in case there is a person stupid 
enough to have written and believe in this post I will make a few 
comments.  Sheck Exley used and wore a great deal of equipment which was 
the height of strokery (e.g. cave diving with dish washing gloves and 
cave diving with 5 backup lights all secured to one connection point.)   
The "Klingon Cruiser" is without doubt one of the most incredibly 
dangerous and stupid pieces of strokery I have every seen.  I can not 
possibly imagine what sort of thought went into the decision to 
permanantly attach stage bottles to a scooter, what if the scooter fails???
The "clothes line catcher" is an item of strokery with which I am not 
familiar but I'm sure that its just as rediculous as most of the other 
things that took place during the 87 project.
