If you knew Steve, as many years as he has been teaching cave
diving in Florida and Mexico, you could at least spell his
name correctly. 
Shows what you don't know.  

To the list: Steve Gerrard, former NACD pres., is the 
             most experienced cave instructor now
             in residence in Mexico. Look him up at Puerto
             Aventuras while in Quintana Roo.  D.
