Hey Joe, you are down there and I am up here. I can state without 
reservation that you don't know what in the fuck you are talking about.

Believe me I know what it's like sitting behind a keyboard and carping 
at people. But at least I do a half-assed attempt to get the facts 
straight, something you obviously have not done.

If you have a problem with JT you need to come up here and dive and 
show us how it's done. If you don't want to do that then why don't you 
shut the fuck up.

If you can prove to me that you have never done an deep dive on 
anything other than a perfect boat with perfect support and perfect 
partners and every single one of your dives have been perfect and error 
free then, to use another oft stated saw; "I will kiss your ass in 
Macey's window".

What I'd like to hear from you (christ, from *anybody* south of 
Morehead City) of one of your "less than perfect" dives, how you 
survived it and what lessons you learned. I doubt we will hear anything 
like this from you as it take courage to admit your mistakes. I don't 
think you have the balls to do it.

People tell me that you are a super experienced, ultra accomplished 
diver. But you never offer one piece of advice, no data, not one single 
lesson learned. All you can do is sit behind your keyboard and do this 
vendetta against me, JT or anybody else you happen to dislike.

How about belaying the BS and give us some information. Give us a "I 
learned about diving from that" story. If you truly have the track 
record everybody says you do, I will bet you have quite a few.

    Jim
