    Backplate hole not aligned with harness - Bad design or bad user?

    Not the case with my XR plate and webbing. The hole is offset and it alignes perfectly with the plate. Mares XR range is good quality stuff.

    Question Why backplates are found in a wide variety of prices?

    DTD has a good reputation in Europe, especially among the cave diving community. Good choice, at a good price! Enjoy it!

    Titanic tourist sub goes missing sparking search

    The best example of this "CONcept" ('scuse the pun) at work was in 2008, when the collapsing private banks were bailed out by the general public.

    I f*** up and I am ashamed

    Of course. I was simly saying what would have been the best way of stopping her from entering the cave (which was a big no-no) from a 10m distance. The O.P. stated that he was against her entering, but pointed out that he was 10m away, so it would appear that it didn't occur to him how to get...

    I f*** up and I am ashamed

    The best way to protect your wife, in this instance, would have been to stop her from entering the cave. I know you were 10 metres away, but could you not have used something metallic to bang on your tank and draw her attention? Do you dive with a small dive knife?

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Any time. Her own explanation was that "she has a condition and often faints, when she feels pain" and that "it was quite characteristic for her". Which would be quite plausible - had she not fainted just as she was uttering that "she felt great" - not reporting any pain whatsoever. Go figure...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    I'm sure she doesn't. She's a nurse (and possibly a head nurse, as she refers to "her team").

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Finally, we agree on something. Well, I've corrected that to read "almost 2 1/2 days" (2.62 to be precise, for the benefit of the hair - splitters). However, those are facts, not "scare mongering". You may not like them, but they are still facts. It's a very sober assesment of risks; on the...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Well, it can't be both; if I'm "way off base with your arguments", I can't possibly be "partly on the right track". Yes, it's Thalidomide. Only I wouldn't call that a scandal; more like a tragedy. At least for the families involved; I don't think that even a single one of them feels that what...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Primary school maths show that it's 2.62 days. So, yes, it's almost every 2 days. Sorry. Unless you really want to be splitting hairs, in which case we can call it almost 2 1/2 days. In my original post where I linked to the findings, I did write "drugs and devices". You can find it if you...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    The answer to your question lies in this sentence: FDA Recalls - How Dangerous Drugs & Devices are Recalled So, if this happen all the time (when pharma companies are not pressed for time), what is the likelihood of their getting it right when they are, like they are now? Therefore, the...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    There is nothing to "believe". These are the hard numbers and facts that I have provided, but you can stick your head in the sand if you prefer. Now you are twisting what was said. Nobody has tried to deny the many benefits the pharma industry has brought about over the decades. People are...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Just because a drug has been approved for use, it does not mean that it is safe. On average, 4500 drugs and devices are recalled every year: FDA Recalls FDA Recalls - How Dangerous Drugs & Devices are Recalled Тhat number is staggering! Big pharmaceutical companies have been proven to have...

    Have you tested positive for COVID?

    Except that it governs it. It determines how a method is done, how long for, how many times, etc, for the method to be safe. If some of the rules governing a method are skipped, the safety of a method is compromised.

    Share a music vid?

    @lowviz, love that throaty Mongolian singing! Very unusual, creative stuff. Here's a song that isn't quite new, but the video is very interesting (well, to me, at least) :D The bend (Biting Elbows) was formed by Ilya Naishuller, who directed & produced Hardcore Henry. He also wrote the songs...
