    No. But I am tired of the "neuveau tekkies" and the instituionalized 
strokery that goes wtih it. I remember when we all started doing this stuff, 
there were people who had been doing it years before us, and it seemed that the 
"strokes" were the PADI officiousianados who blabbered about what we were
doing. 
We had a few weenies and teknos in our midst, in fact Bill Mee made a talking 
wrist computer twelve years ago for deco diving, and we had a few big "hangers" 
and other nonsensicals, but all in all it was a pretty tough bunch of guys and 
the gear was basic doubles, harness, wings and skill. 

    Now, when I walk on a dive boat, it is like walking into an overeaters' gay 
bar
