Hi folks,

may everybody on the list decide on his own if he can accept this as a
joke. I can't.

For those of You who forgot: Dr. Mengele was a Nazi-doctor who did
several experiments on human beings at the KZ of Auschwitz in the early
1940s. 

Anyhow, I hope reading the postings on this list will prevent some more
divers doing things which unfortunately could lead to fatal disease...

Merry x-mas,
Chris
