I just edited a post and was momentarily confused by the buttons: Vote Now Go Advanced Cancel I presume that the first button really ought to be labeled "Post Now" or something (since that's what it did and I can't imaging what voting would make sense there anyway). -Rob

I posted a longer note in this thread about looking for a dive buddy before or after the conference (Nov.6-8). Go there if you're interested (or PM me, of course). -Rob

I'm going to be in Orlando for RubyConf2008 November 6-8. I'd love to put some dive days before or after if I can find a buddy. Ideally, someone going to RubyConf, but someone local would be good, too. I have in-laws that I might go stay with in Ft.Lauderdale (3.5hrs south) if I can't find...

I received this in an email from Roger Roth. Roger is the Competition Chairman and Founder of the Underwater Images International Photo Competition. Roger is an avid underwater videographer, a member of the Gavia Scuba Club (Cincinnati, OH), and on the board of the OCSSDI (Ohio Council of Skin...

Searches of past threads for this found only old (like 3-7+ years) information. My wife has completed her CW dives and classroom work up here in Cincinnati, OH. We will be coming to Ft. Lauderdale for the week of Aug. 4-10 and she'd like to get the certification dives does early in the week...

When trying to leave feedback for hockeyguy2 (u=97531), I keep getting this error: Even though it is clearly past that time. Does the fact that my latest sucessful feedback was also for hockeyguy2 and his latest (and only) feedback was from me impose a stronger condition? Since I bought two...

Well, I was at Scubafest2008 today and talking to the BARE rep, Steve Miller, about dry suits. Since there was so much discussion about dry and supposedly-dry suits at the M&G, I probably should have been paying more attention. Anyway, there is a show special if I order before Thursday so...

I'm going to be headed to Denver (Englewood) on Saturday for business on Monday and Tuesday. They mentioned golf, I said "No, Scuba", they said, "Oh, there's Blue Hole and a few other place". OK, I need to figure out if I bring gear or not. I only have Sunday, 9-Oct-05, to do a dive (or...

I'm organizing a diving day mainly for friends from the Gavia Scuba Club in Cincinnati. I only have Saturday free so this one will be to Blue Springs Quarry in Waldron, IN. (The web site address has changed to http://www.bluespringsscubadiving.net/ {thanks crpntr133!} and the write-up for Dive...

Well, if you missed the lousy viz reported last weekend by pennypue and Jchoby and want to get wet on Friday hopefully before the weekend classes arrive, then start asking for Friday off (or plan to start coughing conspicuously on Wednesday and Thursday so when you call in sick people will...

I'll be arriving at FLL around Noon on Friday. Anybody diving Friday night or Saturday morning? Baitedstorm is already checking on whether her boat is truly full on Saturday. Also, I won't have tanks of my own this time. If I rent (from Fill Express), I'll have to get them back before...

Well, after missing one (apparently great) dive on this vacation already (stupid traffic!), I'm wondering if there's anyone in a generous area around Ft.Lauderdale who will be diving during the week. I'm up to joining any beach or private boat dives or hooking up with a charter that other...

It looks like the FavIcon which used to be a nice little dive flag has reverted to a stylized root symbol that I suspect is the vBulletin default. The dive flag was much nicer. I hope you can bring it back. -Rob

Back in April, AvensGrandpa started a thread on Goals for 2004. Since I don't think I'll be diving any more this year, I thought I'd start a thread to show how I did relative to the goals I set then. Added the '+' ones after the original post Complete dive kit (DONE! Got tanks in Florida)...

Many thanks to DonClaypool with his boat and dive buddies: baitedstorm, murphdivers286, darkmoon3d, MantaRey, ScubaKevDM, and of course JR (what's your screen name again?) for being captain on Sunday. When most of your diving is in Ohio quarries and the other non-Florida (Lake Michigan and...

I'll be in Ft. Lauderdale for a few days and will be looking to dive. I was hoping that my non-diving nephew and I could get an early start on 12/9 and be in Ft.Lauderdale in time for a late dive on Friday, but that looks doubtful. We're bringing my in-law's car down in advance of their winter...

In the June 2004 issue of Scientific American, there was a small article about an experimental system for interpreting unspoken "speech": It seems that this could even be of benefit to divers with typical regulators not just full-face masks. Since the SEARCH function didn't turn up any...

I'm going to be in San Francisco for a week on business and my only opportunity to dive will be Saturday morning. I'm looking at the 3 dive trip by Cypress Charters which is scheduled for Carmel Bay. Some other info I found on the net said Carmel Bay is more exposed to weather (which probably...

Here's a debugging nit for you to pick. The little arrow box to hide/show the left-hand side bar for "Post your Photos!" actually seems to be linked to the "Try the Market Place" (which is also controlled by it's own arrow box). When you go to a new page (like this one starting a thread!), it...

In a few dives in pools (8ft and 10ft), my Suunto Mosquito dive computer has "ended" the dive before I left the water. I've now had two open water dives that were shallow or at least began somewhat shallow that have displayed the same behavior. The Mosquito "starts" a dive when the depth...
