Pete, I have it from those who were last diving in the Bahamas with Rob
that he was in fact doing this there ( intentional deep air diving), and
from some in the UK who said he was doing that in the Red Sea. In this
kind of diving, both deep air drops and Exley's thing, they try to get
down as fast as possible ( even though Exley told me the HPNS would be a
real problem), so yes, a bc problem would be bad, and Exley was wrapped
up in the line, but then how do we have those prpoblems , Pete, when we
are prepared properly unless we are impaired improperly?

 Pete, I was Exley's dive partner for most of his last months of diving.
I spent a lot of time wuith him. I talked to him every night on the
phone. When my wife finally asked me why Exley no longer called me  , I
told her, "DEEP AIR". My kids just started diving again a month ago -
they quit when Sheck got killed.

 I really liked Sheck, he would show up and dive when everyone else had
a long face and a limp dick - but he died doing something stupid that he
was too smart to have done, just like Rob Palmer, adn jsut liek Rob
Palmer he cast his lot with idiots and known strokes, and just like
Palmer he let a bunch of nobodies from nowhere get him going.

 Pete, the problems are as follows: Rule Number One. Option Number One.
To wit, "don't dive wtih strokes" ( only a stroke dives deep air), and
"Don't dive", meaning, if you can not do it right all the way for
whatever reason, do not dive. This means even if you just don't feel
like it.

 Pete, I am not trying to argue with the particulars of what you are
saying, I am saying it is a little tough to claim break failure when
you're driving drunk - what difference does it make.
