George, you need to read the end of this post, this made my hair stand up
on end.

The Names have been changed to protect the less informed, and this is a log
of a dive chat room on Efnet and name of the room is #Divers

This am while looking around for something to do after getting off a 12 our
shift at the hospital this am, I came accross this Chat room.  After some
small talk, this guy <??> piped up and we stated chatting about diving in
general..  Well come to find out he is getting cert'ed from TDI.  Just real
alittle and see if your jaw dosn't hit the floor and your eyes bug out over
what this guy is being taught and what is being said.


<DAwgiee> i gess that you do deep air also??
<??> not as much as I like
<DAwgiee> now I know that you are nuts!!!
<??> there are some cool wrecks that are beyond rec-limits

He has got to be kidding, I wonder if this is what TDI is all about??

<??> how else you going to get to them.
<DAwgiee> tri-mix

Do they not teach about other types of gases through TDI?

<??> I'm doing deep-air through TDI...can't go on to tri-mix till I get
deep-air cert

Get out the check book, those guys at TDI are on their way to the ISlands!!

<DAwgiee> dude, you need a lesson about deep-air diving....
<DAwgiee> ever heard of WKPP??
<??> please, enlighten me.
<DAwgiee> Sign Up to Techdiver mailing list and see what they have to say
about deep-air diving
<??> hooah

Hmmm wonder why they do not tell ppl about the techdiver list?? Could it be
because of the big bad George?? :)

<??> I plan on taking a cave cert class in November
<??> when I go to zFlorida
<??> where's gennie springs???
<DAwgiee> just out side of gainsville
<DAwgiee> like center of florida
<??> that's it
<??> don't have anything solidly booked yet...
<DAwgiee> and ask them who would be a good instruter for caving, and
someone that is not going to blow smoke up your pants
<DAwgiee> you will get honest answers

George, or anyone else, point this guy in the right direction!! Hopefully
he has subscribed to techdiver now and is getting alittle information from
the post of 10/3/97.  Be easy on him, he is living over sea's, and in the
area that he is in, that might be all that they have avaible to them..

Just thought that you all would like to see what was out there.

Carry On!!

jeff
