Hi Kiki.. 

If you are like me your pencils explode after a few deep dives.   when I was 
taking Cave 2 I met a great couple from Utah who had been researching pencils 
and actually standing them in pots of water for days on end and comparing 
results.   Awesome research.

Anyhow.. they told me to use the "stanford eagle circuit" at least that's 
what I have written down in my wetnotes :-).... 

sometimes the simplest of things are pretty darned valuable.

Les.

<< Hi List,
 
 I am looking for a source for some nice pencils for diving.
 So far, the best pencil I got was provided with my wet
 notes book. I have tried several brands of pencils that
 you can find in generic stores but all of them after
 some dives break. I never could find the same quality of the
 wet notes pencils.
 
 I also noticed on the WKPP web site that Georges IRVINE is
 not using regular pencils but some mechanical ones. So my dives
 being salt and fresh water, I am wondering what the others
 are using which gives them satisfaction.
 
 thanx
 
 Kiki
