George flamed: GM> I suggest you guys look at the Wakulla Project book and see the GM>pathetic record of the 126 dives done mostly on the wrong mixes and remember GM>that WKPP laid more line in 3 dives than those guys did in 126, and that GM>Bill Gavin, Steve Irving and I put 3/4 of a mile on the end of Exley's air GM>line. GM>Laugh that one off. And while you're arguing, remember that my standards GM>are the ones that got the access - laugh that one off too. - George And dp blurted: > B) aren't responsible for a team of divers, EU>..... tell 'em George.. they won't ever understand tho.. cuz they will EU>never **be** responsible for a team of divers.. and if they ever do it EU>will only be for one dive, then they'll run home crying (with the trans- EU>former). And I guess you gentlemen undertook your *Expeditions* on your own. Your own funding, no sponsors, all your own equipment, no insurance guidelines, you just put together your TEAM and boldly went wherever you did, not following anyone else's routes. That's swell. I have no desire to lead a team, I dive for pleasure on the shipwrecks of the North East. I am not trying to impress anyone by breaking any records or showing how many divers I was responsible for. That starts to sound like macho, egotistical BS and that's not my bag. Otherwise it's scientific diving which, although can be very similar, is different from tech diving due to the objectives and means of gathering the data to be analyzed. And you usually don't hear scientist types bragging on techdiver. I've never dove caves, and have no great desire to do so. I don't want to say that cavers are silly for diving in a hole in the ground, it just doesn't appeal to me at this point in my life. I dive the wrecks of the North Atlantic, not at all the same as cave diving. But we have logged thousands of dives on air up here on dives between 190 + 240 fsw. And I've never heard of anyone getting an O2 hit let alone dying from convulsions except where there has been a gross PpO2 error (like when someone diving mix puts the wrong reg in their mouth). What works for you probably works well for you, but it won't work up here. Try offering an opinion next time, instead of an assault.
