    Inspiration is a brand of rebreather...

    Glad you made it back! You really are a pioneer, and once you perfect the technique and technology, you'll open the door for other people with trach's to be able to dive.

    I was helping with an HSA training class yesterday, and the class curriculum includes the UPN interview with you!

    He called you an inspiration, which is a brand of rebreather.... I was making a play on words. Come on Matt, I thought you would be used to my goofy sense of humor by now.

    Good advice for any diver...

    If things aren't going right better to thumb the dive and try again someother day... remember accidents are often a chain of small events that are usually recoverable than snowball into one that isn't...

    Nice going Matt

    Keep up the great work, Matt. You are truly an inspiration (and not a rebreather!) to us all. Your pioneering work for others with disabilities is phenomenal. You're showing everyone with hard work and persistence you can realize your dream. Keep us updated on your progress. We'll be praying for you! It would be an honor to dive with you one day.
