Now, I might be missing something being up here in NYC and all. But it
seems a little strange that these guys are using some of this gear *for
the first time* in the Wakulla basin and then will proceed to explore
the cave. How does cruising around at 12 meters in the basin prepare
anyone for a penetration at 300'? 

It's only Dec. 12 and already someone's gotten bent, what's next?
