  Personally, I really like Rod Farb, the "Dude" , and fishman Pyle, but I
often 
keep asking myself, "Why are these guys trying to walk a hihwire between the 
Twin Towers when they can get there by elevator?"

  Rebreathers are real cute, but come on. So far, I am only believing Pyle 
abvout taking the machine to remote places and going real deep to get new 
species. I am only believing him because I want to believe him. The fact is, I 
have been down in enough submarines to know there is not a whole lot to dive
for 
beyond the 300 zone, and I also konw that there are people who can do this
whith 
the right equipment , and do.

   I know that Farb is having fun with his, and Pyle is doing the same, but
both 
of you could use scube just as effectively.

  Rich, why don't you get your mentors to buy a boat and travel around diving 
remote places, and make themselves usefull to science?
