This is at least the second time you have made this accusation and, though I
realize you meant it some what tongue in cheek, I still resent the
implication.  I personally like Lamar Hires, find him to be one of the few
true gentlemen in Cave diving and think him a fantastic diver.  His current
light does not suit my needs.  I used AUL lights and did not find them to
suit my needs.  I am currently using a light that does suit my needs.

So why am I offended?  I cave dive three weekends out of four, do dives that
most would consider fairly substantial and like to believe that more goes
into my selection of dive gear than who I like.  While you may chose gear on
who last did you a favor, please do not lump everybody into that catagory.
