Art, I agree it hard to stay on the topic. Here we need to talk about 
lights and not boarding ladders.

Hey, speaking of lights and boarding ladders, I really hate diveboats 
that have white painted transoms. I mean here you are, climbing up the 
ladder and what greets you but bright light reflecting off of white 
paint. I mean, really, what are these guys thinking? I mean your eyes are 
all adjusted for the gloom of underwater, you just get an instant 
headache. What we need on this list is a list of diveboats with white 
transoms so we can avoid them like the plague.

Uh, what were we talking about again, Art??
