    Who's the largest gear manufacturer?

    U are sooo right Wookie! We all have sold (gave away) our economy to Asia. And they didn't even fire a shot, or drop a bomb. And they took over the western economy. So did the communists win out in the end??

    How far down can YOU go before you need to equalize?

    Well said. My instuctor burned that into us. Don't mess with ur ears. U could have a short dive hobby/career. Just don't even play the "how long" thang. WHY??

    Donating to an OOA

    After reading page one, seemed cut and dry. There seems to be no perfect way to donate. Do believe, to not purge....let them. If bolting up is what they want to do..try to keep em down OR...they will have 7' of travel...2>3 breaths then I pull back, or cut the hose n fold kink it. Surface as...

    Donating to an OOA

    Oh that (backup) is on my neck....it's in my mouth way before OOA diver even gets my primary. And i breath it bout every ten minites or so during the dive. I have as much confidence in my backup as my primary.

The primary comes out of mouth in a flash......no prob....Now OOA diver has NO air to blow the water out, right? They may be too stressed to purge it as well...

    Japanese tourist killed by boat prop off of Phuket

    very tragic...for sure! Why not spend, less than $500.00 to "cage" the prop. No not on all boats. But dam well on DIVE boats. It just makes sense. The lobster fishin fleet have em. It's easy to do, and works! Added bonus.....not hitting anything that may destroy/harm the prop itself. Oh and...

    Tobermory Diving Video

    Great stuff guys!!! Like being there again. Man, remember what I did in the Wheel house of the NiagraII. Just super guys. Now if we can just keep the guy from chalking our tires in the parking lot. Kind of silly? Dive site excellence.....but 1 hour parking....go figure.

    The State of Diving

    The State of Diving

    Garrobo> thats a little strong ya think? Perfection is something to strive for, thats all. Ok there new..(maybe) but sorry, destroying coral and stressing out critters just is not cool. Yes even for a rookie. Swimming vertical? standing on the bottom? Don't ever remember learning the "moon walk"...

    Do you buy lobster tails?

    How true! and you do see it happining slowly. For our country/s it was what, 20 years for our collective labor movments to do just that.... Problem is: how long will it take for the "water" to find it's own level????

    Do you buy lobster tails?

    That very problem, pretty much exists in Can. and the US. these days as well. Other than produce/food....everything else is "off shore" produced then sold back to the west. At our peril. But ooooh the profits to be made.
