Subject: Shushi eatersRe: Deep Air - still need to look @ facts
Esat, I wish I had heliox - I would use it - the only thing that I EVER
agreed with Bill Stone on. This subject is too important for
irresponsilbe suggestion. Too many deaths, Esat, so something is wrong
here. Cave makes it easy to see. As for sushi, I don't ask any questions
about parasitees, etc, because I like sushi - just like you like air and
are not asking any questions, a bad sign coming from a brilliant
scientist, but then you eat sushi , too, and we both know better.
