Have to admit that I did.

With my mouth hanging open, and then I had to call my Old Lady in, so her 
jaw could drop, too.

The list I saw included HP tanks, helmets, lights on helmets, no bouyancy 
control, (not surprising, given their rigs ) but the cardinal sin was 
that she left her buddy. His cardinal sin was that he left his buddy.

I heard her talking about "flashing back" to when another one of her 
buddies had died.

If you dive like she did, you'd have to get used to it, but not for long.

They won't be with us very long. Not enough heart.

Tell your mother they didn't know how to dive, they had the wrong gear, 
and the wrong attitude.
