Mr. Orrell, The below is my second reply to "mechie" sent to him and list around 7:30 EDST Monday morning after he finally got around to asking a question and diminished his preposterous foray somewhat. It got bounced twice yesterday so you and the list didn't get to see it and "mechie" obvisously has not got the balls to reply back to list or me regarding it. Maybe you do if it gets bounced a third time. I previously wrote: mechie, In case you mother did not train you properly either, you reap what you sow Bubba! You are the one who showed up with a condescending arrogant attitude making moronic statements and conclusions without sufficient basis or foundations. You did not ask an intelligent and thought out question. When you present your ignorance in this manner, expect to receive a prompt and proper English spanking. You further demonstrate your complete lack of understanding by assuming I am somehow aligned with others organizationally on the list. For your future information, I am not a member of the club but totally agree with them in DIR philosophy, equipment considerations, procedures and attitudes. Not because I am a mind numb nut robot or parrot, but because I was privileged enough to live in the North Florida area and watch the evolution of their principles since the 1960's. Part of this evolution process was seeing numerous deaths, which were analyzed and evaluated to develop the [DIR] concept further so a similar event would have less chances of reoccurring again. The result has come at a very high price of lost lives over the years. You would be well advised to take a seat and listen if you do not wish to become a part of that investment. George Irvine is only the current successor of a very long hierarchy of leadership who all earned the position the same way he did, from the bottom up through experience gained from making real dives! He has and will continue to do an extraordinary job. I might add that this is not "Suck Up" as some may think because he has never met me nor likely will. Regarding your question about the Poseidon Death Regulators, you can find detailed information in Kevin's excellent new archive http://www.nwls.com/list-archive/ where it was covered very well over the past month. When you are finished reading, come back and ask questions in an intelligent attitude without a "know it all posture" and you will most likely receive a similarly toned answer. I have been at this awhile but even I have learned from reading this list. There are some extremely knowledgeable and experienced individuals on this list with a wealth of information to share if one will just sit and listen.
