Never met Gilliam.  Don't have fair hair.  Don't plan to dye it either - it is
starting to thin, and I would look worse as a blonde.

I have been converted to the no air below 130' camp.  See
http://www.wrolf.net/Cautionary.html

My backplate and harness are rigged as close to DIR as I can by myself from the
various stuff on the net.

The stuff that remains to do: convert from the Jersey reel; convert from UK1200
to canister light; add a long hose (not of great importance to me since I dive
solo); add pockets to dry suit; replace bulky backup console with SPG/depth
gauge/bottom timer with second computer; etc. etc.

I will add a long hose first, since is cheap, and of the most immediate benefit
(to a dive partner, in the occasional situations where I have one.)  As for the
rest - as money permits.  Anyone need any HTML coding or Perl scripting done?

I guess I count that as money going into someone else's diving.  Specifically,
into a group whose members are so vehement in their arguments in this forum,
that they destroy their own message.  Who have repeatedly insulted me.  And
threatened me with litigation.

Think about it.
