Subject: Re: Agencies & Heliox
I stand corrected. Below is the contact info listed on the gue website. i have
been advised through informal channels that this is closer to the St Lawrence
River.  Frankly, when I go diving I go south and east, like into the ocean. I
only worry about upstate when it comes time to pay taxes. In any event
Mr.Sherwood seems like a nice guy, and I wish him much success in all his
ventures.

regards,
