Christ, what rock have you been hiding under, Joe? That thread raged 
on for a couple of weeks. The incident was dissected to the nth 
degree. And the fact that it was Becky is hardly top secret, unless 
you have a rock.

To put it in a nutshell what was learned by everybody on the list 
(except you, apprently) is that if you need to re-read the section on 
pre-tox symptoms and be watchful for them when you are at high PP02's. 
You feel them, you go to back gas, fast . You don't you're gonna tox, 
even if you don't "deserve" it.

Of course an old salt like you already knows that, but one thing that 
you and Barnett keep forgetting is that there are bunch of newbies on 
these list swho are looking for information. You guy's attitude seems 
to be "fuck you, all we do is dive."

Thats bullshit of course, because you guys don't just dive, you also 
post shit all the time, too. And Barnett is usually the first person 
to do posts about other people's misfortunes except when it happens to 
his tidy little group.

If all you AUE guys do is dive then just dive and shut the fuck up. 
Stop doing your blow-my-horn "we dove on virgin wreck at 300' feet for 
40 min.s and picked portholes laying all over the sand"  shit. It is 
worthless, and it is boring. You guys sound like a broken record, no 
useful information, no facts, just glossy BS.
