>The fishtrap trap thing is bullshit , too.

Now I see your expertise has no boundaries.  As far as I am concerned, the 
fish trap thing is still undecided.  I have seen tropicals swim in and out 
of traps, as well as traps with bycatch beat to hell and dead.

>There was one wire box, and no fish in it.

The video shows more than one, as well as showing the remains of several 
fish inside a trap.  I guess the video was lying too?  It was 9 years ago, 
perhaps you were diving air?

Are we still trying to make a point?  O.K. -- you made the call.  Let's get 
back to you actually providing some actual details.  Still no credibility 
and you are drifting all over the topics map.  I still want to hear about 
this "leaving your buddies, calling 911" stupidity you blabbed out.  put up 
or shut up -- just don't play out your predictable hand with the 
"scorecard."  This raving pyschopath bit is getting old...

>One big problem in tech diving is the preoccupation with depth.

However, we all wanted to see something aside from the Wilkes as we have 
been down there numerous times this year.

>see Silkies for the fist time - they are beautiful.

Yes, they are.  I think we had one on deco on just about every Monitor dive 
this year...

>JJ, P and I thumbed that whole operation
>without hesitation.

Good for you George, good for you...
