    What is it? Wait wait don't tell me...

    Thanks ever so much! See I told you I would end up feeling more stupid than usual! Actually, I got certified about 20 years ago but am only now getting back into it. Way back then we used a clip made of pterodactyl teeth to hold the octo.

    Richards Headquarters For Skin Divers

    I know this post is really outdated by now but I had to chime in. There was indeed a Richards Aqua Lung Dive Center on West 42 Street in Manhattan only a few blocks from Times Square between 7 and 8 Avenues. In fact, it is where I purchased my dive gear back in 1989 shortly after getting...
