I've use two methods to verbally communicate with people underwater - both
with fairly good success. One involves talking into a collapsable bag of
some sort (a glove is handy); the other is by forming an air space by
cupping your hands around your mouth on top of another diver's head and
talking straight into them.  They hear it through bone conduction through
the skull.  Works better than you might think. 

Aloha,
