Hey Jason As you hang around here you'll come to the realization, like I did that there are some instances where you have to shout to get peoples attention. We all have pretty thick skins, or else we would'nt be here or in the water. The main thing is that with all things considered the signal to noise ratio is way higher here than at rec.scuba or (shudder) Rodales. So for getting along, just consider us a large and somewhat vocal family. It may not sound pretty but in the long run we're healthier and better divers for it. Did you get ahold of Jason in Mo. yet? regards Brock ----- Original Message ----- From: <IHOPPOET@ao*.co*> To: <techdiver@aquanaut.com> Sent: Friday, April 14, 2000 2:14 AM Subject: nice words? > I am new to this list and have so far learned quite a bit.
