The chapter in "Fatal Depth" about Chris Murley is titled "Six-eight, three twenty." Taking him to _any_ dive site is tough to defend. In Bucky McMahon's July 2000 Esquire article "Everest at the Bottom of the Sea," he describe a diver making his first drysuit dive on the Andrea Doria. That is also tough to defend. The "bus driver" line only convinces me for a short time. We are well beyond that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Irvine" <trey@my*.ne*> To: "Glen Hunt" <glen_hunt@ho*.co*>; <techdiver@aquanaut.com> Sent: 30 March, 2003 13:45 Subject: RE: Fatal Depth > Glen, I think it is which dive boat, not which wreck.
