fine, not a problem-thier tax money is also spent to maintain
the park and services- they have the right to submit anything
they want to the powers that be. The park service then has the
responsibility to dertermine the value and cost of the proposal
and act on "our" best interests-
...I wonder who knows the park service
people really well....

now this is the most stupid thing that anybody could do to try
and gain entrance to an area- show them all the complaints of how
little they acomplished and how much the "bad guys have...
I believe in giving the respect that the "firsts" in any area
deserve, they did work in unproven areas of mixed gas and
some rebreather work.

this is the worst part, my folks just wanted quiet-no fights
no hassles- so when one kid started crap, that one got punished,
when both were involved and neither would stop, both were punished
and even the folks ended up unhappy--
If this shit causes any divers to lose or not gain access,
then everybody loses-and I'm already pissed about other stuff
this is not helping me-at all.
as far as companies being involved, they realize the bottom line
is that they get more from those will work with them than those
who won't, so -think $ when you think biz- if they see $ they
will come around, or did we forget that new design for a light
that would be bought if it was better than the old one-$$$

SO MUCH FOR SITIN' ON YOUR DRY ASS, GO OUT AND LEARN FOR
