Eric runs the second best operation in all of California (pun intended). Seriously, when I get a chance to go diving I go with the best. That being the "Peace". I read the post early on and randy87 you took a direct shot at the Peace. Perhaps you were not trying to defend the Iron Eagle, but trying to change the subject you were. Eric is 100% correct. It is very difficult to run a dive business, with al the crap going on. People are just waiting in the corners to say, "I told you so" about any diving accident that happens, on any level, anywhere. It is so easy for others to sit back at home and condemn us. You have no clue what it feels like to hear, we have a missing diver, or "Captain we have a problem". You don't know, and with God's help, you never will. But Eric has, Greg has, Kenny has, I have, Pam has, Glen has, Roy has, Rich has, Dave did, and the list goes on.
