    under a wetsuit

    A bathing suit that is like bike shorts, but it does not have the extra bike short padding. I bought it at Sports Authority and I think it's made by Nike.

    Am I being stupid?

    You are not stupid for recognizing you are unhappy and wanting to improve your life. I think you know that. A successful marriage involves work from both partners. It sounds like your husband does not seem to be flexible and willing to work with you to improve things. I wish you luck and...

    Portland Quarry & Other New England Dives

    Shane, I think the season has started. I dive wet and dove at Dutch last weekend. I know it's a bit south of here, but it's still relatively close. I'm diving a lake in Connecticut this weekend. I'll let you know afterward what the temps and vis are. I'll be in Jamestown/Ft. Wetherill...

    Sexual Assault: Discussion

    Hah, I remember why I made the list. We strongly disagreed about something. Neither of us would let it go. The result was I made your list. :eyebrow: I think the points you've made in this thread are very good and I agree, even though they're not popular. Michael

    Sexual Assault: Discussion

    I have no idea of what happened. I do not know the details. The example I used was purely an example I made up to illustrate a point. Michael

    Sexual Assault: Discussion

    You most certainly can. First, there are times when it is harder to prove or understand intent. Second, you should also understand that on other occasions, it's not really difficult at all and it's rather obvious. For example, a male instructor reaches for a female student during a dive...

    Sexual Assault: Discussion

    I cannot quite understand exactly what you are saying from how you wrote it, but if you are trying to say that the name of an accused may not be released to the public until or unless the accused is found guilty in a court, then I'm not aware of any law that says the the name of an adult...

    Sexual Assault: Discussion

    Shark Byte, I recall reading in some earlier posts, perhaps in the other thread related to this topic, that the name of the perpetrator of the assault was kept off of SB by the mods until there was verification of the incident being reported to the police and PADI and until the name was publicly...

    Doing the IE at Dutch Springs this weekend?

    I'll be there tomorrow morning, Saturday, meeting Nate for a couple dives. We're meeting at 9. If any of you get there early, of if anyone else goes, look for us. It'd be good to meet and say hi. I drive a blue Toyota Highlander with Connecticut plates. Michael

    Help Choose Dive Ops. / Hotel

    My wife and I stayed at Fiesta Americana a couple months ago. We used Blue XT Sea for our diving. They picked us up at the FA pier every morning exactly when they said they'd be there. No extra waiting around. Pick-up was the same spot/pier as that used by FA's own in-house dive operation...

    henderson goldcore 7/5 vs pinnacle polar

    I wear the Henderson semi-dry goldcore. I have not tried the Pinnacle, although I remember reading that it's a great wetsuit. The Henderson keeps me warm enough so I like it. Perhaps the gold core helps keep me warmer, but I'm not convinced of that. What I do know about the gold core...

    Dive Report 4/20 Stonington, CT

    Too bad the vis wasn't better at Stonington, yet, but it's nice to know the temperatures are warming up. Thanks.

    CT lake diving

    I believe that particular beach is for the residents of that particular town. It's just a great spot to start a dive, though, because of the nice parking, picnic areas, bathrooms and beach.

    CT lake diving

    Yes, I believe it's really meant for residents. But when we went early in the day one time, we didn't see anyone official or have any problems. I also had a local resident with me. The other time that I was there, the park manager spoke with us and was fine with our diving, after she...

    CT lake diving

    The two times I was there, we entered on the east side. If you look at the map from the DEP website, you'll see about 2/3 of the way down on the right side there's a shallow area. It's actually a beach with a nice big parking lot. http://dep.state.ct.us/cgnhs/lakes/westhill/Depth.htm...

    CT lake diving

    I think that there's a Crystal Lake in the Tolland area, too. Michael
