    Hi Dr. Bill,
    I have seen you reference an incident you had involving a CESA from around 80ft a number of times. It sounds like it was quite touch and go. Have you posted an incident report on it? Could you send me the link if possible?

    If you haven't written it up it would be great if you could, it sounds full on.

    Thanks, good diving.

    Glad to hear you are feeling better! I am leaving for FL on Friday. We are driving down to Miami then leaving on a short cruise to the Bahamas. Maybe I will run into you on the east coast this time?!?

    Bill,
    On Monday October 27th, after DEMA, a group of my diving buddies from Canada, lead by Alex Pierce will be on the boat you frequent at Catalina. I would appreciate if you would if possible give them every consideration and provide them with your vast knowledge of Catalina marine life.
    Alex is a well known world class diver. He is a Pro5000 diver of many years, operates the largest and most sucessful dive shop in Canada, which was recently voted as one of the top ten dive shops in the world, and is considered the expert on Sea Hunt memorabilia.
    Think you will enjoy his company...

I did get a shot from one of my dive buddies (Jen) of her with a whale shark at Flower Gardens in Texas. She's such a tiny little thing next to that big old fish. Yep, I figured this one was Photoshop'ed too.
