David,

I did a Google search for your name and didn't find any "world renown"
experts on diving physiology. There was a David Norton, bug guy, a David
Norton who is a painter, a David Norton who is a student and a David Norton
who is a teacher who hasn't been diving in the last five years.

On the other hand, I did a search for my name and got over 15 hits, mostly
associated with diving and computers, and I'm not a "world renown" expert at
anything.

By comparison, I did other searches for "diving physiology" and
"decompression theory" & etc. and got these names:

Dr. R.W. Bill Hamilton
Jolie Bookspan
B.R. Wienke
Brian Hills
Dr. Claes Lungren 
E. B. Maiken
E.D. Thalmann
R.D. Vann
Kenneth Donald
Professor David Jones
Richard Pyle
Dr Al Behnke

 . . . and then Boyle, Triger, Pol and Wattelle, Bert, Haldane, Kindwall,
and Lambertson.

Some of these guys are dead and they're on the 'net! But in doing several
searches using various terms, I could find NO mention of you as an expert in
anything.

Then I went to the IANTD page as you claim to be an IANTD EANx Instructor
Trainer, and did a search using your name and the only instructor named
Norton is a Robert Dale Norton from Missouri. Who the hell are you?

Later,

JoeL (expert BS spotter)
