    Deco vs. Drift?

    What is going on on training these days?

    Don't I remember seeing a "Semper Fi" from you on occasion? If so, Happy 227th and Vetern Day to you, too. As for the other, I guess we can agree to disagree as Aqua-Tec says.

    What is going on on training these days?

    Be Honest ... even if it's no ...

    New SSI Advanced/Deep Nitrox Syllabus approved

    Congratulations Rick Murchison! He authored and submitted the syllabus earlier this year. He also submitted some of the pictures used in the new SSI Open Water Handbook. An all-around well done, Rick! (I always like to the "locals folks" do well). Jarhead
