Jody, I was thinking that before I quit diving due to risk of heart
attack at my age, perhaps we could try one last experiment: if we could
get the CCR manufacturers to takes their rebreathers to an Exorcist
prior to putting them in service, perhaps this would not happen. 

Then before diving the "Doria" if we could get a Tarot Card Reading and
cast the Turtle Bones, maybe this would solve that problem.
