Well you're right about one thing Cobb...techdivers exaggerate current estimates...almost as much as you fill this mailing list with dangerous bullshit. And if you happened to dive some places known for decent current, like the Galapagos Islands or Palau's Blue Corner (oops, forgot those places are for weenie divers, not techdivers) then you'd know just how much fun a 5 to 7-knot current can be. And for the ultimate high current diving adventure, have a look at this link, about diving in Saltstraumen, Norway, where tidal currents can reach 25 knots: http://www.diveinn.com/eng/believeornot/0029.htm Have a nice day, MJB P.S. "The Seizure" was oxtox. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!
