Andrew, this frightens the bejeesus out of me. Can these guys sell any IANTD course if they are the official IANTD representatives. I hope not! I realise this is a fledgling operation, but a similarly sized outfit here, Mandarin Divers (Aberdeen HK), has a tremendous amount of experience in all aspects of technical diving including rebreathers (at least 5 types that I have personally seen). These guys regularly gas dive/blend etc, all the things I would expect an outfit to be competent at before they teach tech diving. I know you are a responsible, fit guy, but given your (relative) inexperience as far as tech diving goes, I am horrified that they require you to give them guidance. Perhaps this is something Tom can comment on? rgds and safe diving to all, JT -- John Taylor, Marketing and Trading Systems, IT Development Credit Suisse Financial Products (Hong Kong) Ltd, 13F, Tower 3, Exchange Square, Central, Hong Kong Office: +852 2101 6927, Fax: +852 2101 7778, Mobile: +852 9031 6397, email: john.taylor@cs*.co*.uk* > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Drapp [SMTP:andrew@ce*.co*.jp*] > Sent: Thursday, February 26, 1998 2:47 PM > To: john.r.strohm@BI*.co* > Cc: dmooney@cy*.ne*; eclayton123@em*.ms*.co*; > ir002538@mi*.co*; techdiver@aquanaut.com > Subject: RE: Independent doubles and the long hose > > <snip> > The main problem is, one of the guys doesn't know much about diving. > He > is the buisness end of the whole deal.
