Item Subject: Message text
Based on the description of what had to be done to get the underwater
marathon going "4 hrs sleep, no experience in are, tides, currents,
colder water, exertion,etc." it's seems to me that this dive was not
very safe and probably should not have been made. Bob may be lucky that
he only took a minor DCS hit, but I find it very ironic that a
fundraiser to treat and teach indians about DCS was done by placing
divers in conditions that don't seem very safe from a DCS point of view.

Just my $0.02
