Troppo,
        Is there any truth to the rumor about a trimix instructor trainer
returning to the USA before the certification dives were done, yet the
students were still certified after doing the dives on their own. It must
really be handy owning a franchise.  It would certainly explain the 'Body
Count'.  I wonder how many trimix divers/instructors they have lost and why
the recovered gear always turns up later, with empty cylinders!

        I think they should rename the team to the "D"ead team.

Paul
