    Custom Wetsuit for Cold Natured Wife

    I'd also recommend a Pinnacle Elastiprene. In my experience, that suit is as warm as most other suits a grade thicker (3mm as warm as another suit in 5mm), it's pretty stretchy and good quality. They've got a size chart on their web site too ( Pinnacle Aquatics) . I've got one of their 3mm...

    Please Tell me That This is a Joke ?

    Must... have.... these.... fins. Anybody wants to buy my XL jets, and is interested in the kidneys of one of my kids?:rofl3: Seriously: These guys must be nuts. I wonder how many people will buy these fins though.

    How much that the LDS tells me can I believe?

    Tell him you're flat out broke, and the pushing will probably stop.

    Olympus prosumer camera

    That's not entirely true, speaking about the SP550 or SP560. It's correct that you can't use e.g. an Inon Closeup lense out of the box, but you can with an adapter (on the SP 550 or SP 560 in an Olympus Housing). Is the 18x zoom of much use under water? Probably not. Does that make the camera...

    Want to do the rescue diver in Pattaya

    I don't see, how a promotional package price proves anything about what kind of income is profitable or at least sufficient to keep the operation running on a long term basis and with decent quality, and which one's not.

    Want to do the rescue diver in Pattaya

    My sentiments exactly. I've never been a supporter of cut-throat course prices, because I believe that to enable someone to deliver a quality job, that someone needs to be given the means to do so, i.e. the customer needs to pay him in such a way, that he doesn't have to cut corners to make...

    Sewing neoprene & wetsuit repairs

    I can't say anything about these guys, because I don't know them. The site seems to be pretty new (domain registered July 2007), but the company apparently is not - on another site it's claimed that Dave's Divers' Den is the oldest sport and commercial diving company in Thailand.

    No luck - person who usually deals with that wasn't around. I'll try to find out by phone on Monday.

    Sewing neoprene & wetsuit repairs

    I'll ask at my LDS tomorrow morning. I bought a wetsuit for my daughter, and had ankle zippers put in. They'll have an address for that kind of work.

    Song with "Protect the Ocean" Theme?

    I guess she means "The Wings" (Paul McCartney, etc). Difficult to make suggestions without seeing the clip(s), so that one can get an impression of the context/where the music has to fit in. "Calypso" by John Denver is a nice song. How about: Donovan - "Atlantis"? Richard Marx - "Whole World...

    What if you need to use some of that 500 psi contigency reserve?

    Sure as heck is, but you keep ignoring that equipment malfunctions do happen, which can leave a diver OOA without any fault of his own, and regardless of how meticulously he planned the dive, and managed and monitored his air.
