To Tom Mount - my email address is gmiiii@in*.co*, not techdiver@terra.net. You need to write that down somewhere. I do not want to see my name as a message header on this list, or have any private dealings on this list. Now that we have clarified that, what are you talking about? If you are trying to tell me you have been trimix diving for 30 years, that's bullshit. If you are trying to infer that you knwo more about mix diving in caves than I do, that's really bullshit. Not knowing the context of this message, I don't know what you are talking about. I will ask you this: if you have been doing it so long, why did you give me so much shit aobut it when I started doing it? Why did you give the people I taught to do it, like Tim Mamone (who did the minesweeper with me and shot two fish at 430 fsw) such a hard time about how I was going to get them killed diving this newfanged home brew? Tom, I know you have been around this sport for longer than any of us, that's not the point. So let's cut right to the chase. You are wrong about the nitrox: there is no reason to dive high ppo2's , I already explained it. You say that you are changing this. I am behind you 100% on any inprovements you make. Why, if you are the grand master, do you listen to the stroke instrucors in you group and let thme tell you? On the other hand, Bill Deans called me today , and he said, "you guys do things exactly the way I do", and he went on to say "isn't it interesting that we both came up with he same thing independently of each other?". Why not listen to Deans? Tom, you are just being your stubborn self. You know that for me to ask my group to let you dive in Wakulla, you have to stop telling people it's ok to dive 160 aed, and other goofy shit. Right now, I can not use Randy McGuirre, because some dumb fuck taught him the wrong way to gas dive. You also know that you have to make apractice of rigging your gear properly, and yes, that means there is only one right way - you know what it is- my way. I am sorry that we could not go with you to Andros, I wanted to go with you since you "know the way", but as I told you it was my son's 14th birthday, and I had to take him and his buddies to Orlando, where we skated the downtown - highly illegal and highly cool, went to the Edge for 7 Mary 3 and some slamdancing, and then hit a roller blade park with half pipes 15 feet high -talk about adrenaline rushes. However, now that you have put the first few thousaand feet in, I will have to bring the "Guns" and the nicad express. We will of course, be diving air , because we are good deep on air, and we will be setting records on the wall in between cave dives. After that, we will be able to talk with the others on this list who think this is a great idea , too. - George
