Hi Chris
We all have opinions and this is what makes everyone do things 
different.Everyone is entitled to express their self and beliefs.This is 
done all the time.As I can only speak for myself , I have made it well 
known that I could have been diver number 9 and the number would be already 
13 and paging 14.No one told me I had to dive the Andrea Doria , no one 
made me do it alone, no one put pressure on me to get china BUT ME.I made 
the mistake that could have cost me my life on that wreck.Thats my fault , 
no one else is to blame.Me, myself and I  put JT at risk.If you do not know 
what I'm about you may read the story in my web site I posted last year 
Doria 98   in the stories www.capt-jt.com   or look in the archives for " 
Facing my mistake" .I also ask you to keep this in mind , there are two 
kinds of boats ,Capt. and crew , those that have already had an accident 
and those that are about to.
