Hey, EZ the specific gravitys of blood and seawater are the same, I'm just returning to mother nature's womb on every dive. Fresh water has the specific gravity of a different bodily fluid, need I go on??? And the cleaning? I'll bet ocean divers are more in Zen with their equipment due to all the TLC lavished on their gear. No matter how beat I am after a dive, I still do the ritual. You fresh guys just toss your gear into the corner so it will develop a nice grey/green patina for the next dive. It's a salt ting, bro, you wooden unnastan. ;) Jim On 2/5/98 11:05 PM H20caver wrote: > Ocean?....Saltwater?.....ugh...ptewy......who WANTS to jump into the >ocean?
