    BTW - Did you set up your Profile? Some ideas for your Profle might be taken from looking at mine. Click on my Username to the upper left, then click on my Profile, and see what I've done. For your's, click the [CP] in the upper left of the screen, then click [Edit Profile]. If you need any help, PM me direct.

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<

    Yeah it's just the air we breath - at depth!

    welcome. all kinds of newbs to talk to as well has people with all kinds of experiance
    When a persons constitutional rights are pulled from them they live in a communist state.
    When one feels they have the inalienable right to force one to conform is called a dictator. Thats when we go to war to protect those rights.
    Some people live unsatisfying lives.
