Jeoff,


First off what gave you the impression your opinions matter to me?  I
wrote that post to Ted to hopefully knock the pea back into the slot and
end this banal argument.  Me thinks you need a we bit stronger dose of
Prosaic and a little less violence in the movies you watch.  


Second Terance Tysal and I have never met, talked or corresponded in any
way.  He therefor has never taught me a damn thing.  So ask Terance what
he means by "had to go to Lake Superior to show <underline>You
guys</underline> how to dive the Fitsgerald".  Whoever and whatever he
taught, I was happly not involved!!

What an uninformed bonehead you are.  I LIVED in South Florida you ass
(I-95 & Oakland Park Ave.).  Who is the Captain?  If I didn�t dive with
him while I lived down there, he too is more than likely an ass!

speed?  


This refers to the St. Clair River at Port Huron (near the Bluewater
Bridge).  Most of the diving is in shallow water were the currents are
raging.  However,  That makes for a little added pucker factor.  You see
the St. Clair River is the worlds swiftest navigable waterway.  I�d love
to see you wet yourself  when one of the big freighters pass directly
over head.  It would take you a month to get the urine smell out of your
dry suit


>Hmmmm 500 foot depths, do tell me more, inquiring minds wanta know.. 


Hmmmm, ask you buddy Terance Tysal how deep the Fitzgerald is.  He is
your buddy right? (HINT: 528�)

And don�t accuse me of saying I have done the Fitz.  I have not, and if I
have I would lie and say I didn�t (It is off limits) 


>>Let me just say you are right about the South Florida "wrecks".  
After

Lite,

the

Lakes.

I know were I�ve been.  The Captain of the boats I dive know were I�ve
been.  On the other hand I don�t think you know were <underline>you
are</underline>, let alone were <underline>I�ve been</underline>.
