I received this bullshit as a private e-mail from one of the biggest
assholes in the business:

<<Good point RANDY, but instead of naming him, I'LL NAME YOU!

<<No Randy, this is not a dream, not a nightmare, ITS FOR REAL.

<<Hey Randy, REMEMBER ME?? I'm the one who advised you NOT TO TRAIN CERTA=
IN
<<PEOPLE IN TRI MIX AND FILLING, and YOU not only TRAINED them, but you
gave
<<them TAKE HOME TRI-MIX EXAMS because they had a hard time UNDERSTANDING=

<<ENGLISH. YOU TOLD ME THEY STRUGGLED DURING YOUR COURSE!! You did a Nitr=
ox
<<installation for these same clowns, AND NEVER VISITED THE STORE! And th=
en
YOUR
<<wife called  ME, and I quote "A FRUITCAKE". Where was the support from =
a
BOARD
<<MEMBER WHEN YOU NEEDED IT??

<<Hey Randy, you know what?? Your WORSE than the Instructor that trained
three
<<of my customers in tri-mix on a dive boat in one day. You know why??
BECAUSE I
<<PERSONALLY CALLED YOU AND TOLD YOU ABOUT A SITUATION IN WHICH I NOT ONL=
Y
<<REFUNDED MONEY BECAUSE THEY HAD LOUSY ATTITUDES AND WERE UNSAFE, BUT
<<THOSE
<<TAKING YOUR COURSE WERE INEXPERIENCED AND DANGEROUS, AND YOU TRAINED
<<THEM
<<ANYWAY. =


<<AND YOU TOLD ME, AND I QUOTE, "they invested a lot of money with me in
fill
<<equipment"

<<Randy, you are one of the people WE DON'T NEED IN  THE BUSINESS.

<<Funny how sometimes things from the past suddenly jump up and bite you =
in
the
<<ass, huh??

<<I'll decide tomorrow if I am going to post this to the techdiver list o=
r
not.

<<Have a nice day-Raimo

Suprise ASSHOLE! I posted it for you!

As usual, you color the story to reflect your own bullshit agenda. Bottom=

line is I follow standards and always have. I never trained those guys yo=
u
mentioned in Tri-Mix. You only trained one of them in nitrox. I trained
them in gas blending and they met standards. THERE WAS NO EXAM AVAILABLE =
AT
THE TIME. Giving them a take-home exam was exceeding standards.

You called me and told me about the situation after I had already sold th=
em
the parts to build a fill station and after they had taken my blender's
course. You did this because you have a problem with Puerto Ricans and wi=
th
anyone who wants to do nitrox within 20 miles of your store.

Furthermore, my wife didn't call you on the telephone, you called to veri=
fy
that we received a threatening fax that you sent. She was pissed at what
you said in the fax, and reacted. I am proud to have a wife that will sta=
nd
up for me. This was nearly THREE YEARS AGO. GET OVER IT!

You complained to me about another guy and I ended up not training him. Y=
ou
won and THIS WAS NEARLY THREE YEARS AGO! GET OVER IT!

So, you don't need guys like me in the business? I suppose we need guys
like you operating nitrox systems WITHOUT oxygen compatible air. That's
right! Unless you made a big change within the last three years, you can'=
t
guarantee oxygen compatible air. At that time, you had never even heard o=
f
Lawrence Factor's HF-961-131 filter system, and you were not purchasing
oxygen compatible air testing services from them (they were the only ones=

that did it at the time). I suppose you are one of the experts that can
determine whether your air is clean enough by looking at a standard
breathing air test.

Maybe we need guys like you to build $4,000 partial pressure panels that
provide the capability to only mix in scuba tanks, something that I do fo=
r
1/3 that cost.

Maybe we need guys like you that preach about supporting the local dive
shops, but then do everything they can to go around distributors like my
company to our suppliers to try to get a better price.

I know it's not a dream or a nightmare, and I don't care. You have never
been, are not now, nor will you ever be a threat to me. You are like a
mosquito buzzing in my ear -- a minor irritation that I occasionally wave=

at with little effect.

FUCK YOU!
