Randy, I would not mention it to him, as it would go into your report,
and an insurance company could later deny you coverage or not pay up due
to this activity. By the way for all of you who think deep air diving on
walls is so clever, when you get wacked like Palmer did, your insurance
company either will never pay, or if you can convince them that you fell
off the boat dead, like some folks are trying to say about Palmer, then
they don't pay for seven years. 

 This demonstrates the thoughtlessness and idiocy of this acitivity, the
iresponsability, the stupidity, and the total lack of forsight .

 If you ever have occcasion to get an MRI spine and brain scan, it will
show up as lesions, if indeed you do the damage. Your MRI will look like
that of a Multiple Sclerosis patient.

 Trust me when I tell you that the dive instructors are leaving just a
wee tiny bit out of the glamour of the nonsense they are trying to get
you to participate in. HELLO!!!
