Dumb Question,  What's an Aunt Jemima and what's it used for?

Sorry for such a mundane and non technical question :-)

Safe diving,

	Marc, we went both ways in the new tunnel which started at what
was
	considered the limit of exploration on a single stage from the
entrance.=20
	The previous group got to where we started on a tripple stage
and hit
	turn on their back gas - they are the ones who want the
rebreahters -
	gee, I wonder why. Gavin sugested that they all buy a pair of
running
	shoes. The cave was huge, and white, and was Gavin's last cave
dive, and
	one of the most spectacular finds we ever made. He was supposed
to dive
	with us for the ceremonial smoking of B Tunnel, the other one
that was
	claimed to be not explorable further without a rebreather, and
Fitz put
	his bottles in, but he had to cancel at the last minute, so JJ,
Casey
	and I place the Aunt Jemima, and added 1800 feet in one dive (
our first
	in the tunnel), on one third the gas used by the previous guys
in about
	the same amount of time on slower scooters. Oh well.
