    Merry Christmas

    Actually that's the debate that's raging. It DOESN'T satisfy everybody...if it did all of this would be a mute point.

    Merry Christmas

    I agree...but our citizens will eventually be confind to the following. I posted this on another thread, but felt it applied here as well. :): Best Wishes Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress...

    Penn and Teller Magic Tricks

    They air lifted it out. Had 3 helicopters that are able to carry the load. Basically the sub surfaces, they attach the cables and lift it up. Pretty simple once you look at it.

    Am I a brat?

    LOL...Marry Me ;). I like the way you think...too funny. I'm still laughing and can just see it: "Aunt Marge bought me a sausage...thanks Aunt Marge, hopefully I'll never have to use it!"

    Ponderables

    Can you cry under water? How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? If money doesn't grow on trees, then why do banks have branches? Since bread is square, then why is sandwich meat round? Why do you have to "put your two...

    SB Tubbataha 2006

    Would you mind having a Croatian-American come dive with you. I dove Palau twice and am now really wanting to go back to Asia since I've been "spoiled" by the great diving and people there. If not...no problem, but I'd love to see/dive the Phillipines. maraming salamat

    Do you beleive in the supernatural?

    The great magician Harry Houdini told his wife he'd visit her from the other side if it was at all possible. To make things fair, they agreed upon some keywords/information that would ensure that it was actually Harry she was talking to. After he died, his wife went to MANY different people to...

    Cozumel aftermath of Hurricane Wilma from my Scuba Club

    I wanted to post an e-mail I recieved while my Scuba club was in Cozumel. They brought video back and were interviewed by an Instructor friend of mine that also happens to be a meteorologist for the local TV station. Hopefully this will give you a good idea of what to expect if you are planning...

    PADI Advance OW

    I for one do. If you had fun doing the AOW, I would highly suggest doing the Stress and Rescue Course as well. From personal experience as well as others comments, it's the most fun you'll ever have taking a diving course. I can honestly say that the course made me a better diver right after...

    Could you still be tripping on halucinogens you took in the 70's?...lol. Good story, I liked it :)

    process & requirements

    This is all good info. Just to expand on one point...when I was a DM I assisted with many different Instructors. Each had his/her own different way of presenting things. You'll find that by watching each, you can gain some great experience. I was also lucky in that the shop I worked out of had...

    100ft deep dive, safety stop at a little below 20ft

    100ft deep dive, safety stop at a little below 20ft

    Not my understanding...but I'm not a medical professional. My understanding is that offgassing is always happening albeit at a smaller rate....but I can see it being less significant if it's only 1 foot from being maximum saturated. I've heard this from some Medical Professionals, but again...

    100ft deep dive, safety stop at a little below 20ft

    Well that's a good question. You have to understand one thing...you are always decompressing as you are going shallower. Every foot that you go shallower, you are offgassing Nitrogen...that's what your computer is accounting for. Honestly, given that scenario, I would try to stay outside the...

    Instructor - Why ?

    Actually there is a place in Florida that'll take anyone off the street with "0" dives and turn them into an instructor in 4 months....Scarry thought isn't it?:06: Thanks for reminding me:17: Not a bad idea. Although I haven't taken any courses, I have tried to incorporate some of their...

    Finally Certified! :)

    When I was a Divemaster I had the opportunity to watch many different instructors do buoyancy checks and each did it a little bit different. First, I would suggest trying this out in a pool since it's an enclosed environment. 1) Take the 10% of your weight and put your weightbelt on...expell...
