Bob or is it BOOB, I am having no problem keeping the players straight you half-whited inbreed dolt!!! I have talked with the individual that made the original post and at lest one other person involved it this incident!!! I don�t open my mouth until I know the facts! I realize that is in stark contrast to the way you (dis)function. However, that is why you persist in spouting a line of company crap that you don�t agree with, while I state the facts. Fact: CGA "Standard" for a Nitrox tank is NOT a tank of any color with a 2" green stripe bordered on both sides with a 1" yellow stripe. Question: What is the CGA "Standard" for a Nitrox tank? Question: What is OSHA "Standard" for a Nitrox tank? Question: What other "Standards" exist for marking a Nitrox tank? Question: When you find there are two or more "Standard" tank markings that are mutually exclusive, which one will you use? Or will you come in line with those of us that have been doing it since before PADI said it was Okay our head wouldn�t explode? Shut up and go away until you can answer those questions. Then you won�t make such a fool of your self trying to defend your and Discovery Diving�s actions! I can�t for the life of me understand why you have such a hard-on for the "Nitrox Bands" that you would refuse to provide a fill for a group of divers (three of them are Tri-Mix blenders) when they bring you tanks that are in hydro, in visual and stickered as Oxygen Cleaned. ( Oh I forgot "Company Policy" that you don�t agree with) I know that it was not your store that drained the tanks, removed the "breathing gas other than air" sticker, closed the isolator on one set of doubles, then filled the tanks so hot that one of the divers got a MINOR first degree burn while loading the tanks into there vehicle (did I mention I have talked to more than one of the people involved? I thought so) SO WHY DO YOU KEEP BRINGING THEM UP YOU HALF-WHITED INBREED MUTANT DOLT!!! I CANT BELIFE HOW FUCKING SLOW YOU ARE. Is the manager of Discovery Diving your cousin, brother, of uncle? Or is he ALL of the above?? Better yet I don�t want to know. Forget about Discovery Diving completely. I wasn�t talking about them, you were. I was talking about you! I was asking QUESTIONS to YOU. If your employer asked you to respond with there "POLICY" reply with THERE Policy! Which fucking part of that do you not understand! If you wish to make it clear that you are not the owner just "the manager" SAY SO, YOU HALF-WHITED INBREED MUTANT MONGALOIDE DOLT!!! Don�t use the companies e-mail account to post your opinion if it differs. If you worked for me you would be fired for using company property for personal use AND using it in a way that could harm or embarrass the company. When <Olympus2@ao*.co*> appears in the "From:" column of the massage everything that follows is the responsibility of OLYMPUS not Bob the manager. And lastly DON"T YOU EVER ACUSE ME OF BEING CIVILIZED!!! You don�t know shit about me and you never will!! When it comes to HALF-WHITED INBREED MUTANT MONGALOIDE PADI DOLTS LIKE YOU I WILL NEVER BE CIVILIZED!!! Get your head out from between your butt checks then I will get civilized.
