Subject: Re: Incident in VA
Richard;
   Seems very unfortunate that the gear failed to be held for inspection!
 Certainly everyone participating in this sport in anything more than
 a "shallow reef way" knows how important it is that the divers 	
 rig is analyzed after an incident. Question: does anyone know if the rig made
 it to the surface and was then ditched, or did the diver shed the gear on
 the bottom? If so, was the gear subsequently retreived?
 What was the source of the fills?
