It ocurred to me today while conversing with George that we have been much 
too critical of certain individuals and their discussions regarding and 
obvious use of P.G.P..  I now realized that the regular 
use of P.G.P. by a large percentage of the cave and so-called technical 
diving  community has resulted in an established hierarchy which might  
otherwise have taken years to evolve.  I feel like a complete stroke for 
not having immediately recognized that P.G.P. saves lives in as much as 
it protects the diver from ever actualy doing something that would expose 
them to life threatening conditions, as a matter of fact most 
accomplished P.G.P. users are always protected since they never leave home 
without it.  The use and effects of P.G.P. have been a major factor in 
the conservation results realized in the N.S.S. - P.G.P. - C.D.S. 
they have witnessed a great saving in time, effort and 
line and they owe it all to P.G.P.  I think it might be helpful to look 
at a few of the more vocal members of the P.G.P. dive klan:

Nick - I should have given more consideration to the valuable impact 
       P.G.P.  has had on Nick  and his "personal preferences".  P.G.P. 
       has done its job by keeping this individual  out of caves and in  
       the g bar where he belongs.  

Richard - I think it is apparent that P.G.P. was able to limit Richards 
          accomplishments to things he is most suited to like being a 
          PADI instructor and performing horrifying acts on members of 
          the same sex.  

JoeL - JoeL, Nick, Richard and the above mentioned horrific acts have 
       some relation to the use of P.G.P., I just can't figure out what it 
       is. 
       
Cavelime - This is perhaps the most accomplished and recognized user of 
           P.G.P. on either of these lists.  The use of P.G.P., not while 
           sampling mind you, has kept this individual from ever accomplishing 
           anything noteworthy , aside from embarrassing the dive team  
           he has been associated with. 

For all you guys do P.G.P. is for you !

If anyone else sees some benefits from the use of P.G.P. by divers I 
would be interested in hearing a discussion on them.

 Rick
