Dear Mr. HeyyDude.
             I am very interested in both of your trips. I have a couple of
questions though. The first is: I have two more pool sessions and my PADI
instructor tells me  I have to dive in the ocean four times to qualify for my
open water registration? I have almost mastered clearing the water out of my
mask but I have to come up to the top of the pool to pour it out. He tells me
that I should be able to do this underwater but I don't think I will ever be as
wonderful as he is so I'll just do it my way.
             My questions are: If I go on your Titanic dive can I do these ocean
dives there and are you a PADI facility? Do you think I'll be able to use my
single tank buoyancy copulator as it has two small holes in it? I bought it from
my instructors brother who said the leaks shouldn't get any worse but I bought
it from him while visiting him with my instructor. He was in this funny looking
great big tank that looked like a pressure cooker I think the instructor said it
was a tanning chamber but I'm not sure why they have that in a special room in
our local hospital, anyway I would like your opinion because I'm not sure.
             The next question is: If I go on that shark dive do I need a
sharkskin suit? I think Elvis had one but I'm not sure where he bought it. Do
you sell them? And finally I heard about this valve that goes on my tank that
has threads on it. I think its called a DIMWITT  at least thats what the
friendly gentleman at my local PADI dive shop said to me when I asked him what
it was. It looks different from the one that I use in my classes and I was
thinking that it looks really neat. Can I have a machine shop drill and tap my
tank valve so that I can use this kind.
Well just let me know how much your trips cost and I will give you my credit
card information here on techdiver. Please answer these questions for me because
I know that it will help others here too.
Thank you........................ Carl Colostomy.
