Trey:

I certainly am not going to argue against Navy tests + your experience =
-- I am going to rely on these.

I understand the frustration of being disputed by people with less and =
incomplete knowledge when you actually know.  But, the disputing seems =
to be human nature -- kind of like when teenagers wake up one day =
wondering how their parents are even smart enough to get dressed.  =
Everyone here should be past this stage and know to listen and ask =
questions when they don't really know -- and not to think that they know =
until they have had the experience and education.  But, in life it isn't =
so and I hope that you can keep enough of the patience and interest in =
being a teacher to keep answering questions (and arguments) with more =
than yes and no.  (Besides, you have it easy.  My wife is a teacher and =
she deals with what frustrates you from 120+ 7th graders every day.  =
Unlike you, she gets paid, but I don't know how she does it.).  Anyway, =
your answers and explanations are valuable to everyone who is listening.

Just remember that the explanations are as important than the answers.  =
I can accept an answer from a reliable source, but I am not satisfied =
with leaving it at that.  I also need to know why the answer is what it =
is.

Which leads me to ... I am still trying to locate a copy of the report =
from the Navy tests.  I was not able to find any link to reports on the =
NEDU web site, and I have not yet gotten back any response from NEDU or =
DUI on where to get a copy of this report.  Do you know where I can get =
a copy or do you have a copy that you can email?

Alex

former dive partner, Bill Gavin. However, I will be glad to listen to =
any neophytes or morons who disregard that and every other aspect of why =
the insulation needs to be what they say here plus provide the buoyancy, =

after they SMD.  I am so sick and tired of arguing . I am about to go to =
Landon mode - "yes" or "no". Gavin used to just ay nothing if anyone =
argued with him, so they got nothing from him. I got all his =
information, because I treated him like he knew what he was talking =
about.=20
