    Nice article.

    It was a very memorable experience. I'm glad I was able to be there myself

    Matt, You and your father are an inspiration. Good Job.

    To be conscious that you are ignorant is a great step to knowledge.

    Congratulations

    Matt,

    Congratulations on the article.

    Obviously, your story is inspiring but it is good to have you draw attention to the Island Dolphin Care people and the amazing work they do.

    It is also very nice for you to mention little Sara. You may be our hero, but your family is certainly yours. Give them my best.


    Cheers

    Great article, Matt! I look forward with great enthusiasm to your new literary career! I'm also looking forward to diving with you someday!

    Glad you enjoyed the article. Don't worry. I'll do some more articles. I look forward to diving with you someday, 2Tours n Iraq. Right now I'm working on getting my dive manual published to show people how to dive like I do. Also, I'm being put into the dive history museum in the FL Keys. It's just down the road from Conch Republic Divers. I look forward to getting back to diving in a couple of weeks.

    Take care,

    Matt
