Fie, Ok, you cling to that then :-)

Oop, looks like we are getting mean :-) Nope, afraid not, I stand by everything I say, but none of your or anyone else's inability to read. Any gentleness in response was an attempt to not come out directly and say "you are a moron" which would be kind of, directly base. A grade school kid...

We is a personal pronoun in the modern form it has about 9 standard uses including Inclusive and Exclusive variants. Personal pronoun's in English are interesting as they contain some level of inflectional complexity which is usually not present in the bulk of english. But I digress, try the...

I thought post #3 and #7 where of value to the original question.

what would I update it with? the number of dives that I have had? I don't think that I have any more certifications than are on there. Oh let me guess, now we have to print out our scubaboard profile and keep it in our pocket in case we go diving with doubles. Great another piece of paper that...

So you took the time to bold the sentence but didn't read it I guess. where did you get "I" out of that. no, never mind I don't really want to know. OH! you found me out! and proved my point at the same time! kudos to you! I have never taken a GUE class or even a DIR class. the last cert I...

yea, pretty much. But I was trying to point out that thinking for ones self is valuable. And yes I know many very good divers of almost all approaches, and very bad divers of almost all approaches. that was my point, and not only in response to you, well not really in response to you, but all...

Score yourself one bonus point at this time.

Well, I deviate from it and I do have a very good reason. here it is so get ready to take notes. I deviate from it bacouse I Chose to. My advise to all divers is don't just be a follower. Don't ever take the stance that because most other people do "it" a certain way that makes their way the...

there is not really a solid standard unless you are following a particular ideology of tech diving etc... such as the GUE referenced earlier. they also use the same or near same configuration as most DIR divers as the picture posted already. First you will only need two first stages. and at...

mostly all have good points here and could be of use to all. I have a few cents to add. yes I know I am chiming in late but I was fascinated with some lint I found in my belly button. (think forty-two) In a real situation YOU need to save YOUR life without putting OTHERS in danger. This is...

yes, on both accounts. I am pretty balanced between them.

well I am actually going on the16 (weather permitting) so I am out on that. thanks for the offer. We did the cavern on after the cleanup dive yesterday. I must say that the flow was the strongest I have seen it. and the topography of the cavern has changed quite a bit. the floor changes shape...

strap hanger?

Ah, thanks for the info and the link. That is a bummer on the HID only. I am a fan of the LED lights that have been creeping out. but then again the prices are really scary for some of them. One of the other issues is comparing outputs from one to the other. and unfortunately I haven't...

Afraid not. I have already relinquished the date.

Ok, I have seen pics in the past of a canister light with purple accents on it. I think that the light was anodized aluminum (who knows why they would color it purple) and the purple was part of the company color scheme. and I believe that it is European. Does any one have any idea who...

yea the cave is interesting. I have done penetrations into the cave portion. Last year was a little easier as the primary restriction at the bottom of the cavern has broken open a bit, it is not that you couldn't fit before but that this will slow the water flow trying to come out while you are...

Does any one want to Dive Bennett Springs on Sunday Nov 23? Had a small group of people but some have dropped out. Bennett Springs is near Lebanon MO, it is a spring so it is a bit on the cold side. and really just a large cavern (I do not suggest penetrating into the cave, unless you are...

ok, now I am dying to dive this bridge. anyone have some location information they would like to share. Lon and Lat would be wonderful even from shore reference.
