These are the big accidents/incidents. JA got hit after heavy exertion
following a dive in Mexico. Everyone already knows this rule. TC got hit on
a bounce dive. No bounce diving to retrieve bottles after your dive. This
has been an unwritten rule for more than several years. He made the mistake
and paid for it. This is all you can come up with. I thought you would bring
up Jason Richards who nearly went hypoxic because he doesn't know what MOD
means. Obviously the usdct was willing to give him a chance and we all saw
on TBS/National Geographic what happens when you let idiots repeat their
same mistakes.

Anything else Toad? Who has not been forthcoming? These are all things we
figured out long ago and enforce with prejudice. Ask JA if he is doing any
more big dives, ask TC if he'll make the same mistake twice. I think they
will tell you the same thing.
