I was comennting on why we have this whole witch hunt getting started and why we have people around the planet that want to destroy our way of life. To the point of loss of personal freedom I completely agree that any moves to further restrict my freedoms are going against everything that was...

Small stuff 50% if it is in good shape Cars/Boats/ATV/Real Estate-- there are much better guidelines

We wouldn't have this issue if we allowed the rest of the world to do as it pleases just as we do as we please. Ramming a way of life and government style down peoples throats is not a good way to make friends and influence people. If people are being opressed by their own leaders -- so...

I know this is a little late but ..... regardless how bad teak looks 9 times out of 10 you can take a little 180 grit sandpaper on either the belt sander or DA and get really good results. I personally prefer a oiled finish but because my boat had been varnished in the past -- that is what I...

Sunrise is the best shore dive -- and you get a nice hike back up the bluff to the parking area. Titlow is better.....hell, alki is better than the park. I realize that a lot of work has been done to create the park ...... I guess this is why I don't like vacations where there are loads of...

There is nothing like a frosty cold post dive beer. (I don't dive drunk or hungover for that matter) I have plenty of drinking buddies. Edmonds has great fish (oh if they would let you hunt there......) but it is such a pain for parking and long swim especially when you are used to GPS...

My trilam and neoprene both have taken about the same amount of time to dry. Besides what is the difference in dry time? you get home rinse it off and hang it up in the garage/shed anyway. It seems the colder water folks are more neoprene or crushed neoprene where warmer water like the...

21' Trophy with twin 85's (one of which has crankseal issues-- and I am waiting for parts) Could easily do 2 up 2 down but the one time we had 4 divers in the boat it turnd ugly and did 4 down all at once. Never again. Not terrribly fast but for the deal I got I will live with it. Next boat will...

You might try over on the NWDive News page http://www.nwdivenews.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi or just thumb thru the ads in it (availble online) at http://www.nwdivenews.com/online_issues/2002_05/page01.shtml

I would think anything under $400 is a steal. Assuming that they are fairly new, valves feel good, hydro isn't too far out.

I have a Ranger and absolutly love it. I see you are from Vancouver -- you will love it for around home and for the few times you go to warmer waters I can't imagine it being too much overkill.

Two More points: 1) There is never one right answer, there are always multiple wrong ones. 2) I will say this I am alway willing to learn new things, I am continually reading about new ways to do all sorts things (not just diving). DIR seems to say (again no expert) that everything else...

I will be the first to admit I don't know all the principles of DIR dive philosophy but, everything I have seen here from the DIR advocates has me running in the opposite direction. The attitude that if you aren't DIR you are dead man walking and the DIR disciples' are the only ones suited to...

Well now your are busted. That just isn't very PC to pick on the poor defenseless taliban.... Yea Right. -- take a look at my signature file.

I will weigh in on this -- I think true solo diving is a bit too risky. On the other hand I have no issues with getting seperated from my buddy (easy to do in waters around here) We are competent divers don't push limits are always good about making sure we have plenty of air when we surface. If...

6.5/7mm suit with ~50F water I wear T-shirt and shorts, if it is a cold day I will wear sweats instead. My undergarments are more geared to what weather conditions on the surface are than staying warm below the surface. The suit does just fine on its own for that. When I am deeper (100'+)...

I did swing thru really quickly on saturday. Bigger than I expected but not much. I need to get out in the water and see what gear I am less than satisfyied with to decide on what to replace. In all likelyhood next purchace will be another reg but untill I get out and dive a few times again I...
