Von, why don't you stop by GUE and straighten Jarrod out. I tried to tell him that diving the Britannic in a drysuit was not the Von method, and that since he was beyond 300, he should have had steels and a wetsuit, a backwards bc, two bottom timers in case his arm got bit off by a shark, etc. Maybe you can come to a WKPP dive and tell me how to do more than a "bounce" dive, since I have very little experience with the kind of big bottom times you are doing, and show me about "exploring" and what I need to do in the way of "modifications " to accomplish these feats, short of the lobotomy is appears you forgot to tell us about. bigvon@be*.ne* wrote: > > I did laugh at THAT one. > I realize I am on the "DIR list", not techdiver.
