 Tom, I am really getting sick of your effort to donwplay our diving. I was 
there at that dive, Gavin and Irving added 850 feet to A Tunnel, that was the 
first dive. I did the other two, one with Exley and Gavin, adding 1400 feet 
more, and one with English and Gavin, adding 1200 feet to that. What is the 
propblem with you and the truth? Three dives, 3/4 of a mile added - not 129, 
nopt 29, THREE. Somebody long ago put in the first 500 feet, Gavin , English
and 
Main put in the next 900 on a sneak dive, Exley put it out another 1200 with 
Paul DeLaoch during the '87 project. Exley and I set up the last two dives,
Main 
and Exley cleaned them up. In B Tunnel, JJ, Casey and I gunned that one from
the 
sinkhole ONE DIVE, TOM. 

  You keep recalling when I was new at this, like that is somehow a discretit
to 
me. This is in fact more proof that we are doing it right. - G
