Paul, everyone knows Cobb and nobody is the least bit out of tune with what Cobb is saying other than the resentful little weenies who don't have anything to say that they can say with their own mouth. Cobb got fucked by some dumb asshole on that bullshit 450 suit, and aside from that the guy does not get to dive as much as he would like to, and is smart enough to know that if he can not get in the practice, he needs to not be doing it at all. My personal opinion it that compared to the skill level of some of us down here, nobody north of Palm Beach should be in the water in the first place, and I have yet to see NE wreck diver who did not make me laugh out loud underwater. Would you fly in a helicopter with a pilot who flew 4 times a year? Cobb is no moron, he has a real life, real job , real family and is a real person, not some dive industry dumb fuck whole thinks he is a hot shot because he teaches diving. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Braunbehrens [mailto:Bakalite@ba*.co*] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 12:06 PM To: techdiver@aquanaut.com Subject: Re:Behind every dark cloud there is a silver lining It's because of assholes such as this, that people don't own up to their mistakes. This hurts the diving community as a whole. I for one have a lot of respect for Jim, for having the guts to come out and say that he's not ready. The reason it takes guts is exactly because there are assholes like the one who posted the message below. I've had some disagreements with Jim in the past, and yes, he can be abrasive. This does not, however, give one license to shoot him down in public when he does the right thing. I'd just like to add that whoever this asshole is, he's also a coward, since he doesn't have the guts to sign his name.
