Great photos! I'm diving in Key Largo for 5 days later this month. Can't wait!

After my 4th cert dive, both my Eustachian tubes collapsed and I couldn't dive for about 5 weeks. The vented valves were recommended to me, and I tried them on my next dive. By the time I got down to about 20 ft., my ears were hurting badly and I removed the vented valves. Haven't tried them...

I think they are fairly common. I've been diving for slightly less than a year, and I've witnessed 1 panic attack and 2 near-panic attacks. Also, on my last check-out dive for AOW (120 ft. in a murky lake), the dive was rushed and didn't feel quite right from the beginning. I managed to get...

My primary mask has a purge; my back-up mask doesn't. For me, one is about as easy to clear as the other, but I feel the purge valve is one more thing that could go wrong (though I haven't had a bit of trouble with it so far).

I contributed the beer!

I just had a tank O-ring fail, luckily it was on the surface (when I was connecting my reg). It started me thinking; how common are O-ring failures at depth? Anyone here ever experienced one? If so, could you describe what happened?

At the present time, what are the hours of operation of the springs? Are they open every day? What does it cost to dive? Is there a phone number? What facilities are on the premises? (restrooms, air-fills, changing rooms?) Are divers required to use a flag? Are the springs now being...

I had a good experience with Dive Key West in June 2005. I plan to dive with them again. There's a trip report at my scuba page: www.trailquest.net/scuba.html

I really like my Aeris Atmos2 console purchased from ScubaToys. I agree; talk with Larry.

Reef Master DC310 camera along with numerous accessories. I was all ready to love this set-up, but it has been nothing but problems from day one. I'm all done with Reef Master products!

I paid $238 for SDI cert in Feb. 05 in Greenville, SC. That included everything, except for two $10 donations for boat expenses for the OW dives.

Head to "The Hot Hole" at Lake Keowee, SC and dive in the warm water discharged from the Oconee Nuclear Power Plant.
