    Value of PST 120

    If it is already out of hydro/viz then pop the valve and have a look see. That is a good price.

    What's the most dangerous situation you've been in?

    Dive off Roatan in 81. Normal easy dive to around 90' off the wall. Boat dropped me off and I was going to swim back in to shore. Swim in seemed easy until I got close. Gas gone now and surf and coral were pretty severe. Almost drowned getting weights/gear off in 5' of water. EDIT: This was...

    Thrift Store Vintage find - Double-Hose!

    I get a lot of stuff off of Ebay, and I pay attention to where it comes from. There are a bunch MK10's out there in FL, etc. I look for stuff around the Great lakes or midwest. Seems to work out well. Got too many MK10's though... and USD's, and .... well, you get the picture.

    Your upgrade sucks

    I was screwing with you (sorta) on the MySql knocks. I am seeing a pretty good improvement now. You also had the misfortune of doing this right as IE9 came out. I am wondering though, is the issue with IE9 the browser ID occurring, or something within it specifically, 'cause they were supposed...

    It has been a year or so since the "Obama is going to ban all fishing" threads

    Oh, apparently red snapper are about to vanish from this earth. Jeez, I could go into a whole litany of where various agencies have taken the current administration as a justification to implement various inane and crazy restrictions simply because they know the One will back them up. So yes, it...
