         Mrlungs,
              I have 4 questions for you. 
1. What is your first name.
2. After all your talk, how many technical ship wrecks are there off 
    the coast of Florida?
3. Which ones do you think compare to the Andrea Doria?
4. Have you ever dove the Northeast ship wrecks, or do you just 
    assume that Florida is better because it's where you live?

Before you try to tell us Florida has the best or the most technical 
wrecks on the east coast, get in your car and go North driving and 
diving. If you manage one wreck per day, you will probably be home by 
Christmas. Then you can tell us about your 20 or so technical Florida 
ship wrecks.

The world contains but three types of people:

            2. Those who watch things happen.
            3. Those who wonder what happened.
