Don, was the Chris Murley killing the one where he was the only paying
customer on the Seeker and all the boat monkeys and freeloading TDI scumbags
that populate that "crew" on the boat were going for free and it was a class
or he had just taken a "tech" class? I forget which CF is which with that
bunch of morons. It is always the same elements - Captain Danny Dumbass,
TDI, and the freeloading boat monkeys. Like a ZZ Top music video with the
car, the keys and the girls.

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.
