A man is in a car accident they rush him to the only surgeon in town who says. I can not operate on the man he is my son. Who is the surgeon?

Does the Captain hire the Dive Master or does the Dive Master hire the Boat. Also. I have heard many stories about what happened. What is the most accurate report? I heard several divers, more then two, were on a boat dive and buddied together. Had they dove together or was this a group...

I'm looking for a mask strap in a bright color to help ID myself under water. Got any sources?

I think there is a big need for woman’s dive t-shirts. Not shirts with sharks, beer, pirates, skeletons, or men with weapons. Just something nice and tasteful. Coral, pretty fish mermaids, etc. It would be great if when they got wet they became nearly transparent but the wearer was...

There is plenty of blame to go around. Buddies who say you are on the boat when you are not. Buddies that leave you behind in the in the water. Diver for choosing idiots for buddies. Dive master for not having eye contact with diver on check in. The Captain is the one I feel for. He...

Mrs. Prages How did you hunt down the name of the film "Trapped Beneath the Sea"? I consider my self quite knowledgeable in underwater films and a darn good searcher of the internet and I was unable to find it. Good Job!

I photocopy my old dive logs so I’m mainly carrying copies. Some of the logs were written from memory years later when I remembered a really cool dive I forgot to record.

There was something about “Open Water” that was just dull. It deserves to be on the list as every minute of the film is about diving or floating. I watched the film solely because I wanted to know what was going to happen. I saw it on pay perview or else I would have fast forwarded it. I...

The Cave looks pretty cool.

I am looking for the name of a TV movie from the 70’s that documented the submersible accident where Ed Link’s son died. I believe the submersible was called “Deep Diver”

Here is a short list of films with diving in them. I’ll up date it is my therapist lets me. They are listed in a Good to Poor order 20,000 Leagues under the Sea (1916) 20,000 Leagues under the Sea (1954) Abyss, The (1989) Around the World under the Sea Assault on a Queen Beneath the 12...

Part of pushing the limits, as Dave Shaw did, is saying that we as human beings refused to be held back by our limitations. This great sport of ours was based on learning from the mistakes and sacrifices by those who went before us. Not learning from an accident makes the loss all the worse.

I was having a huge spy ware problem. I’m clean now. I run Spy Bot and Ad Aware and they seem to do a good job. I just didn’t know you need to run them regularly. I run them weekly now. I also found a great program called Hijackthis. It worked differently and very well. I’m also running...

Unless there is some contractual ownership of the video, like it is owned by the expedition, it should be up to the family to determine the release of the video. Personally I think it should be released. We, as divers, could gain knowledge that may prevent a similar accident from happening...

Oasis Divers http://www.oasisdivers.com/default.htm on Grand Turks is great. Talk to Dale and Everet. Great equipment, great dive masters, and very nice folks.

Wool is one of a handful of materials that maintain body warmth when wet. I went dry caving a couple of years ago. Knowing I’d get wet I went to a thrift store and loaded up on wool clothing. We cam across an underground lake and swam the 30 yards across it. The water was 50 degrees and...

Also those wishing to dive Big Rock should be advised that it has been moved to several miles up Topanga Canyon Road. http://www.boingboing.net/2005/01/10/25foot_rock_falls_on.html

One of the best dives I’ve done was the Manta Dive with Kona Diver’s on the Big Island of Hawaii. The DM’s expressly told us not to touch the Manta’s, bare hands or not. We were told they have a mucus layer that protects them from disease. As far as harassing them Manta’s and rays? In areas...

Grand Turks is a good choice for a serious diver. Great wall dives that are a 5 minute boat ride from the dive shop. Yes a five minute boat ride. You are back on shore for your tank changes.
