I originally typed up a really rather long
response, but after lunch today and a brief
discussion with someone else, I will limit
my response to the following;
http://www.diver.net/bbs/messages/10935.shtml
Re-read the above public post made by yourself
and then please answer the following questions;
-Where did I, or anyone in the article, mention that
Richie was hurt because he wasn't diving DIR? Where
ANYWHERE was the term DIR or Hogarthian used in
the 1000+ word article Ritchie wrote?
-Why should it bother you that others are interested
in information including and beyond the stories and
essays you put on your site? Because it's not like
anything you have written and therefore it should
not ahve been put up on this BBS.
-Why did it bother you that the people who asked
the clarification about Pyle stops didn't do it
publically? And why did you come out and basically
accuse me of making those people up? Are you
publically calling me a liar? Re-clarify your
statement please.
As to things I have said about diving being fun,
you have NEVER been on a boat with me nor read
everything I have posted everywhere since 1995,
Including two SO CA BBS that went under three
years ago.
Believe me when I say I am positive and promote
the fun in diving whenever I'm am participating
with as many as 38 divers around per day. If I
wasn't fun and positive, I would not be asked
to return to work or dive on certain trips year
after year after year. Perhaps you should read
what others have written about diving with me
rather that look to what I have written.
