I have been getting private e-mails that tell me DIR, specifically
manifolds, will not work in cold water.  The Swedish brothers don't seem to
have any trouble, and when I was cutting my technical teeth in South Holston
Lake in East Tennessee I didn't have any problems.  South Holston is a
spring fed lake in the Appalachian Mountains.  It is 42 degrees at 200 feet
in the summer, 37 degrees in the winter, 3 foot viz all the time.  I had a
piece of shit Seatec bag suit, woolie underwear and three finger mitts that
were the worst, but I could still reach all three valves on my piece of shit
Genesis manifold that connected my worse piece of shit Genesis 120's.

Cold water?  Been there, done that got over it.

Even as a stroke I could out-dive you guys.  And now you're challenging me
to come dive your sights?  I have nothing to prove.  You guys, however seem
to have a great deal to prove.
