Dear Mr. Irvine:

I posted the information, as accurrately as I could from the information I
had and have as of this time.  I did not say that I personally thought the
dive plan was a good one, I did not particiapate in the dive and wasn't
even on site.  Would you prefer that accidents not be discussed at all?
Your flame towards me is stupid as I see it; I believe in open discussion
of accidents so we all can learn when accidents do occurr. I'm pleased that
so far the local newspapers, including the LA Times (who interviewed the
widow) have not published anything.

Again, the dive plan wasn't my idea; I don't dive with that type of
configuation at those depths, although I've been that deep and I didn't and
don't endose the dive plan especially at that site.
