Mike, you just don't get it do you. I have tried to talk to you in private and you think I'm an asshole, because I'm willing to speak the truth. The fact is we can stop all this bullshit and put out there what needs to be done. The only reason that guy is alive is because of Rick Atkins and VBtech, which comes down to me being an "asshole", you can blame Eric for anything you want, but he saved that guy and he is a part of VBtech and Rick trained him. It was no fluke that he was involved in the saving of Becky either. But you got him so scared he won't even talk to me, so keep him out of it and deal with someone who ain't afraid of you. You might think you control all the dive boats down there, but that ain't true. Get off your high horse and tell us what went wrong and what you intend on doing to keep it from happening again.
