One member of the USDCT told our lawyer, Alton Hall, to his face, that he would not dive to 300 feet with anyone who DID NOT smoke pot. Ask Tom Mouth why deep air is taught. Tim O'Leary tells me it is "to be competitive" - meaing to be able to "compete" with slobs like Gilliam in the race to get intstructors for the tech training agencies. Sooner or later we will be dictating the standards to these guys , the sooner being the sooner Alton Hall toasts a few of them in court. The US Coast Guard and other related Goverenmtn agencies already call me on a regular basis asking questions about how this should be done properly, since they are sick of the accidents. In a few years the people we are talking about and thier practices will be considered so stupid and so criminal as to be unmentionables.
