I agree, since I was led to believe that it is not OK to advertise, yet 
Abysmal Diving seems to advertise frequently. I'm for advertising within 
a certain guideline, but if it is not accepted, it should apply to 
everybody. Myself, I'm interested in what Abysmal is doing, but I think 
other manufacturers should have the same opportunity.

Happy diving, Pete
