Hi xxxx<br>
I have deleted any trace of your name  on this email and will post
my answers so that all may see , you sub. to this list so you will see it
to , as I think you may wish it this way.Just so all understand and to
Billy Deans if he reads this , I've not said any thing bad about you (BD)
, but I am bringing facts out to show that my first debate with George he
used your name(BD) against me and said you were the best , my
understanding of this is true , you are a leader among leaders in
diving.Yet the Doria took your friends life , George and his kind give
the wreck no respect , they have never dived it .The wreck is a very safe
dive to those who respect it , death to those that make mistakes , some
should not even go there.Just the boat ride is too much for some.Read the
rest below.<br>

<font face="arial" size=2>How's it going??  If you remember I was on
the xxxxxxxx with you this year, and helped out with Irvine on the tech
list.  I didn't want to publicly disagree with you and give Irvine
any amo, but I must disagree with you about
Billy.</font></blockquote><br>
I have not said anything bad about Billy Deans reread my post , I was
very careful in my wording to avoid that.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite> <br>
<font face="arial" size=2>I also read the books and talked to Gary and
Billy about the incident.  But that aside, I took my wreck training
with Billy  ( actually if you look at my photo on xxxxxxxx , I am
wearing xxxxx shirt, coincidentally ) and Billy does not let you dive to
240' on air.  The Wilkes Barr starts at 170'  ( I just did it
again xxxx ago and ties the line in at 170').  Maybe, and I say
maybe, Billy would let experienced guys on air if they were going to stay
on top.  But what experienced diver would want to stay on
top??  Also, maybe in the past that has happened but I know towards
the end Billy wouldn't let anyone dive it on
air.</font></blockquote><br>
I have no doubt you tell the truth , I only said that I was told by Karen
she did this , if it is wrong it is wrong on her end , not mine.That is
why you see the name.If she changes her story so be it , I don't change
mine , I tell the truth and you know it.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite> <br>
<font face="arial" size=2>I kills me to agree with Irvine, but I must
agree that Billy ran the safest of shops.  I think you missed the
mark and I'm not sure you can win this arguement against the tech
list.  Billy has made a helluva rep for himself, and deservedly
so.</font></blockquote><br>
No one wins in this shit , George has got this thing so fucked up most
delete his shit or refuse to post or ask questions.The only thing he
cares about is 18,000 ft of line that most could careless about.As for
Billy Deans his rep is without  question  the best.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type=cite cite> <br>
<font face="arial" size=2>Anyway, just FWIW, but I didn't want to do it
publicly.</font></blockquote><br>
I have no problem in the public eye , if everyone was as open as I am
things would be better.<br>
<br>

 <br>
<font face="arial" size=2>BTW, you going back to the xxxx  next
year???</font></blockquote><br>
Don't know what I may do , looking at doing some very deep wrecks , I
still need to hit some this year , if I don't make them this year then it
will happen next year.Below are some other private emails that all should
see names have been deleted.<br>

You are right about Billy Deans and the DORIA.  He earned a healthy
respect <br>
for her following the Ormsby tragedy.  One would be foolish not to
approach <br>
any DORIA dive without some measure of trepidation.</blockquote><br>
