Yo are nto using my bottle marking system, yho are making it dagnberous by adding siliness ot the markings - this is stupid - jsut , plain, stupid. JT, I have been diving all my life. Te only reason you can not "make it work" for you is that there is somethig that you are convoluting that makes in not work. Try asking instead of convoluting. Don't even try to tell me that there is some kind of diving that the worldwide WKPP affillites are not doing. That would be baloney. On the subject of your diving with strokes, that is why you know so much about strokes, and why you participate in so many body recoveries. I will not even get on a boat with strokes anymore, and there is no reason on this earth that I have to. BTW, I have done more to teach more people than you ever will by taking your ass in your hands diving with an hardehaded stroke. That is not the way - either you do it right or stay home, JT. You need to make that leap of faith and believe that compronise and corner cutting slack ass laziness is not the answer, and my diving is a lot more fun than yours because I have not had to ever make up a single exucuse for my diving, and will not participate in a culsterfuck any more .
