 Sean, dead right on . You might also mention where you would want to be
looking 
if lost at sea (not into the water). 

 The real answers lie in doing it right, as you suggested. Otherswise, if you 
are a real paranoid guy, and you routinely violate rule number one, carry a 
radio in a light tube that has the plastic bag cover - we use them on the
little 
boat in the Bahamas. 

 We just swim in, on our backs , head out of the water where we can see and hear
 
  Convoluting a gear rig to accomodate strokes is not the answer - rule number 
one lets you avoid strokes, and the storkery necessary to deal with them. Bob 
McGuirre told me one time he was doing some silly thing "becasue there are so 
maney strokes out there". I said, "but you do not have to dive with them", and 
he said, "somebody has to". - G

  PS, Hey Sean, I just read you sig - I love to see the voice of "been there, 
done that" - G
