Rick - it seems to me that the WKPP did everything they could to help these guys out - They publicly dessimate knowledge on an everyday basis out diving in this enviornment. I for one, know EXACTLY what the dangers are of a CCR, and I've never even SEEN one in real life. Get off their back. These guys have NO responsibility in this death, and can be thanked for increasing diving safety all over the world.
