That post is bullshit.  I know the shop that the Monterey demo is going to be 
at.  It's a friendly shop, with a good attitude, but new to tech.  The "tech" 
diving in the Monterey Bay is generally a mishmash of different gear 
configurations, with very little, to no leadership.  We don't have caves, or 
deep wrecks, to dive; just really cool marine life coming out of the trench.  
So, as far as tech. configuration is concerned, Monterey's almost virgin 
territory.  

Concerning tech, there is only one shop within 100 miles that knows what it's 
talking about.  It's owned by a longtime mix diving, wrecker, who is busy, 
professional, and not into the Internet.  He wouldn't post anything, let 
alone crap like that. 

My buddies and I are some of the most active, deep divers in the Bay.  Most 
of us have Halcyon rigs, and have evolved towards DIR for our ocean dives.  
The standardization and streamlining of our gear, has been a great 
improvement over the chaos of the past.  We welcome MHK's DIR demo, and will 
be there, to meet Mike and show support.

Dave
