With the recent post George put on the two list I'm sure there will be
a lot of talk about it. I would like to say a few things about the way
WKPP conducts their dives. In the last 18 months I've bene diving with
the group and using the methods they preach, I've gone futher, faster,
and most important, SAFER than I've ever been before. One person
responded to a comment George made about Lamar where he said something
about Lamar never doing a mixed gas dive and this person responded by
giving some dive # from the Wakulla project book where Lamar made a
dive to 900 feet into the cave. I don't remember this person because I
deleted it as I do all nonsence I see written. Was this a responce in
favor of Lamar or WKPP? 900 feet is not much of a dive when you
consider that is about halfway to our first STAGE drop! I'm not sure I
want this person setting the standards for people I may be diving with
in the future or a may have to enforce rule #1... never dive with
strokes!!!
