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.

    If you morons knew it was bullshit, then you should have written to GUE
or JJ, but no, you have to be assholes, and I will keep reminding you that
you can not tie my shoes and you really don't know jack shit about DIR or
you would not even think about that bullshit. You guys don't get it, and
that is a FACT, as you say.

    Shut the fuck up and try learning from the pros, not harassing them like
cocker spaniels.

      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,
      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.
