To the NE Captains et al:
Some of you may be good tech divers, maybe alot of you are great tech
divers. That's not the problem right now.
 The problem is  about wanting to go to your dive sites.....my analogy:

Lets say Captain Zero ( Zero, I'm not picking on you, its just a good name
for this ;-)  bought a filled in Sanitary landfill, which rises about 200
vertical feet. He then decides to call it the "Ultimate Ski Slope", and then
starts to market it.  He gets in an argument with a bunch of guys who live
on top of Vail Mountain.  Zero  tells them, if they want to prove what kind
of skiers they are, they should ski the "Ultimate Ski slope" with his
"instructors" and staff.
While I can imagine sending Dereck McNulty to ski ultimate trash, the rest
of us could not be bothered. Its better here.
When you guys want to see ocean dives worthwhile traveling to, visit South
Florida. :-)

 Or to get back to the analogy,  how could you really expect Cobb to ski
trash, when  he could ski  Vail instead?

Regards,
Dan
