Vin, he was holding his own until he started talking about diving, and then when he got to the bondage wings, well the mask flew right off. Chief, I only have two deliveries: bad, and real bad. You and I have both long ago given up on the real strokes, but we may save a few newcomers. The only possible argument in favor of me continuing to bother with this is that long term it may produce enough serious players to not only keep us rolling, but to keep the sport from being outlawed or regulated. The old time fat, drunken, pot-smoking red necks really do not do too much diving any more, so do not present much of a risk. We can influence the perception to where the new guys do not get themselves killed emulated the strokes, especialy when we jump on the deep air guys in light of our own diving record. You do not follow it as closely as I do, since I spend a lot of time talking to the guys in others countries. Let me give you an exmaple of why it is so important for us to keep both fret on the strokes' necks: remember that TV show that the Australians were talking about where the New Zealnader got killed trying to "set a depth record in a cave" in Kiwi? The dude had read the Wakulla Project book ( the Bible of strokery) , where that horifying collection of mutants were diving at 300 feet on air asnd bragging about it evrywhere. This guy thought that since Skiles did it, that it was ok, and so he tried it and died. This is why it is worth it, in my opinion, to get on here, or anywhere else I can, and point out that this crap is not the real deal. As everyone knows, the phony map produced by these guys was partially phony due to the air diving, and if you read the book you see how these great heroes of strokedom stuggled with dives that I can do on less than 80 cu ft of gas in less than 20 minutes with 90 min of deco, and so can anyone else using our methods. Despite the Chris Browns, and the Ted Diveshops, and the Pettenudious Oxides out there, I know what the fuck I am talking about, and it is usually a very short time before every one realizes that and tries what I say. Hell, I hear that Harry Averil, Mr. Dive Rite dyed-in-the-wool good ole boy hose stuffer is now known around town as "Harry Hogarthian". This guy used to complain to everyone he could about what an asshole I am, and now he is copying me - that means other will do it right from Harry now. The fact is , I learned from Gavin and Main, whom nobody but a few of us ever listened to,and whom the same dumb red necks hated liek they hate me, but 100's have learned from me, and my guess is it is the delivery . Sure , most people hate me, but as long as my dog and cat are happy to see me when I get home, I don't give a fuck, and I even locked the Mainecoon in the garage last night and he was still happy to see me. It has done the goobers no good to battle me, we still hold all the cards and always will , simply because we are right, and they are dead wrong in everything they do , in and out of diving.
