What other programs have been made and how do we get a hold of them? =20

I thought the RB80 would be a little more streamlined than the older =
Halcyon's.  The ones you all wore in the tv show looked really boxy and =
heavy. =20

   That TV program was finished this year and mostly filmed last year. =
We made four programs at once there for a while.=20

   With the RB 80 we pick up 50 feet per minute of speed, so we can go =
about 8,000 more feet in the same bottom time, or get the old distances =
done faster. We needed this to make exploration of side tunnels more =
reasonable ( some begin between 12 and 17 thousand feet into the cave ) =
and it mainly will allow us to go further downstream in Leon Sinks where =
we do not expect to have a sinkhole for miles.

   Right now, the only people who have RB 80's are myself, JJ and =
Reinhard's team. Halcyon is producing more of them soon. Mine was made =
by Reinhard.

    Subject: WKPP TV Special


    I just saw the WKPP program on OLN for the first time.  All I can =
say is, VERY IMPRESSIVE!  Before, I could only imagine what WKPP did and =
now I know.  I wish I could do that type of diving, but I know my =
current limits. I intend to go a little more in my diving, so GUE Tech I =
is the next step.  For now, I am content to lurk on the techdiver list =
an learn from the experts.

    Now for a question or two:  How old is this program and is the WKPP =
using the new RB80 rebreathers?  How much of a difference have the =
RB80's made in distance since this program was made?

    Thanks,

    D Burnworth
