Edward, is it nessesary to play your childish games. Do you actually
think your the only one's to dive in current.
You britts are a tough bread even though you require a quick release to
facilitate your de-kitting.
I would have to guess that if you need a quick release to escape from
your gear you probably can't even reach your manifold knobs. Scarry.
P.S. American's aren't stupid enough to dive from a RIB.
Nice plateform<g>
