A Mermaid!;)

But what if Nitrox was across the three week course instead of six hours. You can learn Nitrox tables at the same time you learn air tables. (The air tables are included on my [SSI] nitrox tables). You'ld really only be adding EAD, MOD, O2 Clean, O2 Service and the 40% rule. EAN is fairly...

We stayed at the St. Andrews State Park Campground Thursday and Friday nights. The wind kept the misquitos off of us but was rather cool, too. Definitely needed our jackets. I ate at Billy's Oyster Bar for dinner (Steamed Shrimp). Gary?( tall guy, short black hair) of Hydrosapce and his wife...

Well, this trip started out as a 12-hour Empire Mica trip with 13 divers. At the payment deadline, 13 turned into 8 divers. Ten divers are required for Hydrospace to make an Empire Mica Trip, So our 12-hour trip turned into a 6-hour offshore trip. By the time we arrived in Panama City Beach, 8...

Great picture Dee!

Today marks the 19th Anniversary of the terrorist bombing of the Marine Barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. From me, a candle burns for lost friends. Philip W. Alexander formerly Cpl. USMC 1981-1985

No, It's not true. The US Army 10th Mountain Division is currently in Afghanistan. The Marines went in first because thats what Marines do. We go in and establish a beach-head or drop-zone for additional troops and supplies. The Marines also can move on orders from the President. While the Army...

I appreciate the info.

I admit my ignorance. Tell us about "rounding out". :)

1. Define "warm. 2. What part of Florida? The Panhandle will be in the mid-60s F. The keys will be in the mid-70s maybe lower 80s. Tom or Walter or Wendy or some of the rest of the South FL group can answer address that part better than I. We start diving the panhandle in 3mm again in...

Is relatively new. They only have one line of equipment (IST) but they are working on getting a second line (Dacor). They don't have a pool, pool sessions are at the local "Y". They do have a compressor, but no storage tanks yet. No Nitrox. They do have a store front, but it's not even in a...

Are there any guidelines telling: How much? How often? etc. Thanks, Philip (Jarhead)

I don't want any computer that will lock out. Life happens. When it does and I need information, I don't want to look and see a blank. A computer should continue to give you vital information after a violation.

IMHO, If they do their job right, no one will ever see their fins. ;)

The one I have here in the office has 16 pages. but they don't fold it in half. No pictures. Good articles, but most of them are about travel.

Agreed. We all need to protect our rights all the time. Agreed. But to create an artificial reef in a National Marine Sanctuary is not a right, it’s a privilege. And to dive that artificial reef is not a right, it’s a privilege. And we should not lose the distinction between rights and...

I'm sorry Mike. I admit I was "yanking your chain". We do have silt here and it does get kicked up from time to time. But even then, vis is better than the river. Attached are some pics from Morrison Springs. The silt is 8"+ deep in places and the consistancy of talcum powder. Morrison...

Rick, have you noticed a geographic pattern of the complaints of silting? ;)

I think we need to see the original "un-edited" picture.

I'll plead the 5th.
