	And in it encapsulated the whole of the strength of the WKPP
school of diving. Arguments about equipment, personal preference, etc
all pale into insignificance beside the point that with a committed,
fit, well trained buddy team; you can do anything. Two strokes in
hogarthian gear are still going to screw up.

	To anybody new - check out the recent hit rate. giiii has been
dispensed diamonds left right and center. The rest of the time he's just
funny and comes with a delete key.

	To giiii, if you want to spread you sphere of influence, start
hammering the buddy diving and team work aspect; less the 80 man crew,
or even the half dozen on site, but the three man team underwater with
proper skills, understanding and practices. This is a message which is
not just relevant to cave divers in big holes in the ground but a lesson
to all the basic divers out there.

	You might also avoid seeing a diver heading off solo with a WKPP
rig, and screwing up with it.

	And to Rich - I guess we were right.
