  Subject: RE: Morons , bullshit and crappy scooters


  It was not you, it was one of the usual complaining detractors. The =
one thing that the assholes are succeeding in doing is making JJ =
paranoid about publishing, which hurts everyone. What he is doing is =
putting the stuff online so it can get weeded out before he goes to =
print. As you all know, I save my real information for people who are =
not assholes and my team. I then give it out freely, and if I make a =
typo, my logic is so sound that it is apparent and not an issue. JJ is =
trying to teach to an audience he can not see and is trying to cover all =
the bases. I am only interested in helping people who want help, not =
necessarily those who need it.

  NOBODY has the wealth of information and practical knowledge that we =
do. Notice that those who want to fight that are all either dive =
instructors for some bullshit agency, or the kind of people they direct =
beer commercials at: fuckups who think diving will make them a cool guy. =


  I am not talking to you , Jim, but you and the rest missed the whole =
point of this: you all said, "it IS there", not it "WAS" there. You saw =
how fast I made myself right - the time it took me to type the message. =
It was gone in 60 seconds, as they say. We don't do fucked up things, =
that is the realm of the other agencies. We DIR or not at all. I say =
"we" because GUE came from WKPP and JJ is my 11 year dive partner. I =
have nothing to do with GUE, Halcyon, EE or anything else. I am the =
Director of the WKPP, and that is it as far as my associations go. GUE =
does and teaches what we ( JJ and I ) developed at WKPP. Find that =
anyplace else, with or without typos.

  Read and IANTD or TDI manual and then get back to me about good and =
bad. Be sure to get a fresh box of crayons, first.

    Were you talking to me?  Just in case you were,  I had absolutely =
nothing to do with the thread about that shit.  I rarely ever post on =
here.  I do exactly like you say and keep my mouth shut and learn from =
the pros. I only responded when you came out with the shit about =
everybody being liars about the link.  The link WAS there.  As far as =
harassing somebody - fuck that - find a harassing post on here from me. =
My apologies for not notifying GUE of a typo on their website - I just =
assumed someone from GUE was following the thread.

to GUE or JJ, but no, you have to be assholes, and I will keep reminding =

        I'll only comment on what I know about:

        FACT: The GUE site DID say that because I read it.
        BUT: I kinda figured it was a typo.
        AND: I also kinda figured that a couple were just using it to =
jerk your chain.

        I'm one of those "pussy weenie divers" you often refer to.  =
Haven't been full cave all that long.  BUT,=20
        I have been an outspoken advocate of the DIR philosophy amongst =
recreational divers and my fellow "pussy weenie" cave divers.  With that =
said,  this post sounded like someone needed to change their tampon.

          Will the list of morons who said that there was a web link to =
GUE which stated that 95's were required for classes please show me the =
link again. There is no such. You assholes are really getting to be a =
pain in the ass.Why don't you try learning from the pros instead of =
constantly fucking with them. None of you pussies dives, none of you =
pussies has done jack shit, and I am really sick of the constant crap =
surrounding GUE and the WKPP. You morons do what we do, then tell us how =
it is done.

          The fact is that nobody but IANTD is stupid enough to have =
divers dive ocean with steel tanks and a wetsuit, the fact is that =
aluminum 80's are the tank of choice for ocean, 104's are the tank of =
choice for drysuit cave, and aluminum 80's are the tank for wetsuit =
cave. Florida is a drysuit cave dive, Mexico is a wetsuit cave dive.

          None of you morons even understand why we do what we do, and I =
am sick of explaining it over and over only to have you screw it up , =
misinterpret it, and drivel about it when none of you has the experience =
to tie my shoes or JJ's.

          I'll be glad to pick apart anything the rest of the agencies =
are doing ad infinitum, and I will show why what we do is right. Any =
time any of you want to argue that, I will make you look like the morons =
that you so obviously are.

          As for this scooter thread, if anyone wants to know why the =
silent submersion ' is a ghastly piece of crap, I'll be glad to explain =
that as well.

          None of you has a clue, trust me - not a fucking clue. What =
you do and what we do are galaxies apart. Let me quite Lee Iacocca , =
"Lead, follow , or get out of the way".

          None of you can lead, and I personally don't want you =
following me and screwing is it up, so get out of our way.=20
