Subject: HOMEBREW CONTRAPTIONS
Two things have become dangerously obvious here lately.

Seems there are two kinds of divers: 

1. Those that depend on their gear to do what's it's supposed to and 
therefore put their money on the best possible for the job.

2.  Those that want good gear but don't want to pay.  These include 
the homebrewer (George reformed me with one of his sharp but accurate 
comments) and the cheapster.  Homebrew makes it himself, cheapster 
gets his gear by the cheapest means possible.

It comes down to this - when your life and the lifes of those you 
dive with count - do you really want to be diving with the cheap 
stuff?

Not me.

Thank you George for straightening me out on that one.
(P.S. - I guess you know this means your reel is on hold :)  )
There are those that talk about it, and those that
do it.  The ones that talk about doing it really
bore me.
