Hey, Chris. If that all expenses paid invitation
extends to me, I'm in. If you decide to back out though,
why don't you come diving down here with us? We got
lots of wrecks, clear water, big tuna, big sharks, 
good boats. And right now, apart from a 3m swell,
great weather. But maybe you prefer the easy kind of
diving where you are.

ps. if your offer is really genuine I'll tell you where 
to send the arline tickets. Also, can you guys put together 
a hogarth rig for me or does your offer also include 
freighting my gear up there?
