--=====================_4386729==_.ALT Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed I was trained as a cave diver by a student of Tom Mounts', Bill Schenck. Later I dived with Tom in several caves over a several years. Tom was training director of NACD at the time & Scheck Exley ran the NACD ITC I attended when I became NACD Instructor # 28 in 1975. These were the early days of Cave diving when the pioneers, like Tom were making "Safe Cave Diving". My hat has been off to Tom for almost 25 years.Where were you 25 years ago? I wonder if Patti remebers me taking her to the abyss off of Galteres' boat at the Royal Palms in Grand Cayman in 1978?? Tom Mount & Bill Schenck provided me with the best technical diver training I ever received. This training equals my training as a U.S. Navy Diving/Salvage officer. I dive about everyday & run my own charter scuba boat in the Lower Florida Keys EVERYDAY. Now; I won't respond to flames. I don't intend to piss & moan with you either. My motivation for this post was to give some of the newcomers in the last 15 or 20 years or so with a more mature perspective to who Tom Mount has been and is.
