Who should I contact regarding a problem member in the flash chat section of this site?

I hadn't planned on posting about this until last night when I learned what caused the incident. Last weekend I had an o-ring blow out at depth, we weren't very deep, only 30 ft but it did force me into a shared air ascent. The cause of the problem was I put the wrong o-ring on my yoke valve...

I'm looking for a dive buddy to dive with at CSSP on 8/18 and also just seeing who is going to be up there.

I know there have been threads on here about first aid kits before and a google search confirmed it. Why does a search of "first aid" not work on ScubaBoard?

There is a thread regarding this in the trips and marketplace sub-forum but I know many of us don't check that frequently. Thought I'd put this here so other can find it. http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=195014

I was in a rescue class out there today (Sunday July 15, we were supposed to originally be out at CSSP) and wanted to report on the conditions. I haven't downloaded my computer data yet but the surface temp was 87F. There was a thermo but I don't remember the depth and it wasn't significant...

I figured I'd post this since rumors are flying on other boards. First, nothing is final until September 17th. But, arrangements are being made to sell the property to a new owner. Even if the sale goes through the park may continue to be open, the new owners are apparently considering this...

I thought I'd post this because after talking to a few other certified divers it became clear not everyone was taught how to handle this. So here's what happened. I had already completed 3 dives for the day had just finished up having some lunch when we decided to get back in and do another...

Has anyone ever had a backlight problem with their Aeris Elite, or similar units? I had a problem on a night dive this last weekend where half way through the dive I couldn't get the backlight to come on. I tried it on the surface after the dive and it worked intermittently. Now it's working...

On Sunday May 6 2007 at CSSP (Clear Springs Scuba Park) a female OW student presumed to be approximately 15-16 years of age was pulled unconscious and not breathing from the water. I have it on good authority that she under and not breathing for 15 minutes before being pulled to the surface...

CSSP is really starting to warm up so I think it's time we get ourselves out there and get diving. Anyone interested in doing a Swampers get together on Saturday May 5th? I'm hoping we can get something like this together and for those that want to do the ScubaToys thing the next day we can...

I figured I'd post this for those that don't visit the ScubaToys site. I've known this was going to happen for a while now but I had no idea it would be this big. It looks like they're just going to be throwing one huge party up there to celebrate the opening of their new pavilion up at CSSP...

I have a Dive Alert DA-3X, the one compatible with the ScubaPro Air 2, Tusa Duo-Air, and the Atomic SS1. I have seen the light so to speak and have converted to a non air2 configuration. My question is can this model be converted to a normal LP inflater configuration? The normal one is...

I'm putting this in a separate thread so it hopefully gets a little more attention. The other thread has been a little stagnant. The plan is for anyone who wants to head up to ScubaToys (I'll just assume we all know where that is) around 3:00 PM and then head over to Rockfish at 5:00 PM for...

I've wondered about this for quite some time. It appears that when diving a can light you are supposed to use your left hand for this. I've never understood why. I must also say I'm not a DIR diver so please keep that in mind for any responses. Since I don't dive a can light or I'm also...

Who all is planning on making it out to CSSP on Jan 1 for the polar bear dive? If I can ever get rid of this blasted cold I'm planning on being there.

Just wanted to wish all my fellow Swampers a Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays, whichever applies to you.

I noticed that at least on their website the price has increased from $5 to $7. Anyone experience this yet?

I hope DebraW doesn't mind me posting this. It appears our very own DebraW took a minor hit on her trip out to the flower gardens. Just wanted to wish you well and thought other Swampers would want to know. More details at: http://www.zendiving.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3272&page=2

I wanted to split this off away from the other thread that was more specifically geared towards happy hour. This title is a little more appropriate and might attract the attention of a few more swampers. I am by no means "running this show" but just thought I'd get the ball rolling. So the...
