To Sean and others doing the "Doing it Right" web pages.

I've dropped off the film of George and JJ's workshop at the NACD seminar
this weekend. It should be ready in a couple of days. Dave from Michigan
is doing a cave class with JJ this week at Ginnie. As soon as the film is
developed, I'll drop the photos by his campsite. He is going to scan them 
and forward the files.

Barry Miller did the video, so it too will be available soon I think.

I couldn't get everything I wanted to -- too many people and too little
time.

The color closeups include the following:

A stage bottle setup.

George and JJ demonstrating the gear setup (for those of you who want to
know what these two guys look like -- they're cute little fella's).

Various angles of the complete rig (minus a drysuit) -- we were in a
classroom and various other detail shots of the light, light handle (which
is modified to allow using just the thumb for scootering, etc.

I didn't get a photo of the overboard discharge system.. However, at the
next dive, I'll try and get a shot of this before George gets in the
water and I'll forward the photo to you.

I didn't get a shot of a stage bottle hooked to the complete rig but by
looking at the stage bottle, it should be obvious how it will ride. Also,
I know George has explained stage bottle placement no less than 20 times
and that info should be in the archives.
