Subject: intro.
Hi folks,

I describe myself as a northeast wreck diver.  I dive off of charter
boats that sail out of CT, RI, NY and NJ.  I went as far as Rescue diver
then decided to spend my money on a dry suit, L.P. steel tanks with
manifold, harness and wings. I now train through IANTD and have learned
how to use the gases that take me to the wrecks that I read about. After
having studied up on a shipwreck and after exploring it I feel I too
have become part of it's history.  I also feel that I am entitled to
rescue and preserve artifacts from the ravages of the open ocean.  I
have visited the war graves of a foreign navy but never intentionally
disturbed the remains of the crews.  I dive deep, stay no longer than
planned and practice accelerated decompression.  If this makes me a
technical diver then so be it. It just seems to me that the trips and
gear with that label on them are costing more than they should. IMHO.
Dive safe!

A.J.
