     Scott, it is about time you jumped into this - the idiots are out
there teaching and recommmending ridiculous stuff, and the pundits are
going even further.

     Here is the bottom line: I am responsible for 93 other guys and I
do dives that none of these gusy do, I got my information from
commercial diving entities and Navy rebreather info, and these guys got
it from ex 7-11 workers who call themselves dive instrucotors, or
self-appointed wizards with either no ral experinece, no undrstanding,
or no clue.

     Look back at what these strokes recommend and teach , and see that
I have been right about them all along. Pete Hesletine has a letter from
a certain huge fat slob that I would like to see repoduced on here to
show exactly how stupid these guys realy are, and I could give you a
list of accidents that fly in the face of known, published, hard
commerical information that was totally ignored in the pursuit of deco
weenery, but I am saving that in case I have any further problem from
the real idiots out there, who know who they are.

      This is like the mocrocircualtory dameage problem - it is going to
come back and bite some huge fat asses real hard one day.
