Todd,

	You may be right.  Howerer, when George decided to jump in my shit with
insults directed at me....  Well I answered.  
And I will continue to answer them as I see fit.  As for what can be learned, 
Where is the substance from George?  Was it 
in his responce to Colman Benson (an OW diver) sugesting a cave dive?  The man
has a great deal of knowledge.  But what use 
is it if he can't/won't articulate it?  In short the man is a joke!!!!
	I Know how to filter my mail thank-you I've been around the net long before
most of you had any idea that the WWW even 
existed let alone what it was.  But I do apreceate the offer.  And if that
sounded rude I'm sorry.  I have know idea how 
long you have been on line so it is not personal.  I read Georges posts in
hopes that some day he will say somthing of 
value.  Not just "I'm the greatest.  I'm the best.  I can do anything....  Ect
ect.  

Bill <aquadart> Bott
