Subject: Drysuit Heating Systems
Quick question

                         I had some time ago a Repetative Diver suit heater
that was
very kindly stolen along with 8000 worth of kit. I have replaced all of it
now with the exception of the suit heater. Whilst I used it very rarely (only 
during the winter months on long hangs) I would like to replace it. Does 
anybody know if they are still in existance?.

And my two cents........

Sorry folks, I have to side with the post that Dan Volker mailed. I am amazed
sometimes at the casual way people feel drawn along into a very high risk
area of the sport of diving. There is no mystical way to purchase the attitude
and singlemindedness to explore a deep wreck site or cave system. I got flamed
big time on the subject some months ago, but I still maintain that there has to
be education beyond certification. Looking at what is going on right now it is
debatable wether some of the instructors should be certified themselves let
alone
be giving  certs out. Don't get me wrong I have the utmost of respect for a lot 
of good people, but the people that are pedaling this as 'mass market' have no 
place. If the fatalaties keep on coming them the legislation will follow. The
only
people that will enjoy access etc will be groups like Georges WKPP team - who 
will be the idiots then?.

Regards

Chris
