A shaking of the head in disbelief that this sort of idiocy continues. However, I take your point, and believe the magazine that publishes news or information about this stupidity, WITHOUT COMMENT, is guilty of condoning it. Or even promoting it. The responsible way for specialist press to deal with irresonsible idiocy is: DIVERS DIE. YOU LOSE! "Two British divers are trying to reach the pinnacle of mindless stupidity when they attempt to dive deeper than 142 metres on air. The two divers involved, Mark Andrews and John Bennet, are a couple of clueless, long-stroke wankers. "There is enough evidence of the known toxicity of gasses under pressure to ensure that anyone who helps these two dickheads in their attempt is complicit in the crime of aiding a suicide and could (and should) face manslaughter charges. "If they die on their attempt, we only care because it will add weight to the already considerable pressure diving, and especially technical diving, is under from legislators and insurance companies. "On the other hand, Mark and John's deaths will raise the collective IQ of British divers by several points. etc." rgds billyw -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
