Subject: Trey I have a question for you...


"I have been arguing on our California NG for the last couple of weeks
against the solo, deep air cowboys..=A0 I have a *experienced* diver =
who has
been arguing in favor of a system called *independent* diving.=A0 After
several exchanges he finally defined it as a system that has someone
underwater without anyone else and/or a group of diver's scattered =
about
without anyone else around..=A0 He supports this system because it was =
written
in a book called *solo* diving published in 1990 by Best =
Publishing...=A0 When
we called Best Publishing they said they are no longer printing the =
book
because the protocols are outdated, but yet this idiot is still =
standing
behind the merits of *independent* diving..
=A0
So my question to you is, who do you think is dumber;
=A0
1)=A0 A doctor that advocates using 40% in his *pony* yielding a P02 of =
1.9 as
a bailout;=A0 or
=A0
2)=A0 A guy who has been diving for 35 years and is offering himself up =
as a
mentor to newbie diver's in our area to anyone that wants to learn how =
to
*independently* dive?????
=A0
FTR, our new buffoon is 60+ yrs old, in and out of drug and alcohol =
rehab
and mandates that you clip off your weightbelt off the side of the boat
because he is to out of shape to get back on the boat with his =
weighbelt=A0on
and also advocates using an elevated level of F02 in his *pony*..
=A0
So who do you think is dumber????
=A0
Later=A0"

For the record, I've been diving independently long before the SOLO book was published. The PO2 of 40% at 90 fsw is 1.49, not 1.9. I clip off my weights because of osteoporosis in my lower back, and has nothing to do with my overall physical condition which is excellent for 68. As to being characterized an idiot and buffoon, I wish Mr. Kane had the cajones to say it to my face and not behind my sore back.
