Now really Dave, you have to stop this nonsense...

Don't you get the message? You are on the techdiver list and stuff you put
out here is not funny anymore. When I want to hear stupid stuff I can watch
TV commercials or something. What you put on this list belongs to the worst
I've seen in a long time. At least you found out after 25 years of diving
that a bc might be a useful item in your gearbag...
BTW, your 'yup', 'naah', 'friggin', 'nope', and other casual cool words
combined with your reference to jetplanes and now celebrities are starting
to irritate to a level that I too will need to add you to my filter. Let me
tell you in all honesty that you will be the first.

Please Dave, consider keeping your messages to useful info only and try the
DIR system just once before you start telling us how it is not going to work
in your situation.

Best to you (also really!),

THOMAS
