Dennis told me about it this morning (I missed it on the news).  
Apparently it was a father/son team, black coral diving, somewhere in the 
neighborhood of 250 feet, almost certainly (make that certainly) on air.  
Another father/son team with them apparently got bent.  Tony Montgomery 
said he'll make a posting on it when he gets more details.  Tony? Dennis? 
Can either of you add anything at this time? Tony, you mentioned embolism?

Aloha,
Rich
