HFS is prez of Uwatec USA (or maybe not) which had business dealings with 
Draeger. Draeger went elsewhere and HFS somehow managed to stay with JWA, 
in spite of driving off Draeger. And guess who owns Uwatec? JWA. And 
guess who owns SP? Right once again, JWA.

With that in mind who's missing? No more Draeger (for obvious reasons) or 
any other rebreather. Diverite is gone. Imagine that, a tech mag with no 
Diverite ad, if that's not the kiss of death I don't know what is. No 
huge IANDT ad, how curious. Another missing link, as you pointed out, 
Uwatec itself!

Looks like the now infamous "vendetta" issue is taking it's toll in both 
advertisers and what are no doubt huge lawyers fees. I have heard 
hard-core, dyed-in-the-wool TDI types express doubt in the Slobs' mental 
state after reading this issue, can you imagine what the non-TDI 
affiliated advertisers think?
