With prices like those, I will be paying you a visit in 2024.

Can you expand on that please, so I don't have to call AMEX, like pulling teeth sometimes? Does the Med/ Evac' benefit only come with a Pink DT/ Platinum card? Or does the AMEX Gold card have it also? How about their AMEX Regular card? If you know, Thanks.

There is no field test for DCS, DCS is purely a clinical diagnosis made by a Doctor, not a field Medic. However, a field Medic can form an index of suspicion of DCS by considering the following, NOI/MOI, LOC, change in mental status, O2 Sat', GCS score, test PT Glucose level, Pupillary response...

Just to be clear, I never said all PTs getting O2 need transport. I did say. "Yes, there are times where assessment and no transport by bus, or even at all, are appropriate." It wasn't just that Woody needed O2, it was a totality of other factors taken into account. While I wasn't there, no...

This is a topic to gauge interest in getting together for a SB Steak House night out in NYC. If you have interest in attending chime in here please. Working Date: Saturday February 24, 2024. Location: We will discuss that and possibly hold a poll to determine the venue.

In NYC, FDNY FF respond to every call, in most cases arriving on scene before the bus. All FDNY FF are certified to CFR (Certified First Responder / ~50 hr. course) level at the Fire Academy and can give O2. Some FF who came over from the EMS side of the house or who volunteer somewhere, may...

What you are describing is completely different than what actually happened. I said, call for the bus if possible, have crew assess PT., documentation, if PT. declines transport, then PT. RMA and Police witness it if possible. In this situation a POV, is not a substitute for an ALS bus. Yes...

Yes, drive them to the hospital, only in a scenario where a bus is not available to make the transport. If the patient feels so strongly after getting a second opinion from the bus crew that they should be transported to be seen, then that's what RMAs (Refuse Medical Aid Form) are for. Then...

If Woody, or any patient for that matter, needs O2 when he exited the water, in EMS world, he should have been transported by ambulance, or if need be driven to a Hospital or Dr. by POV. The next correct step would be to notify DAN and his family. Proof that this was the correct protocol and...

I expect the next DT video may be slow coming out to be released, due to the extensive thought and editing that will go into it to protect their image. If Woody does the full disclosure and transparency he said at the end of the last video, then Woody deserves credit. I thought they used to say...

Does it seem hypocritical for Woody, who frequently states his resume of over 6,000 dives and numerous instr. certs as he sits in judgment on DT weekly while reviewing videos of other divers incidents, while at the same time, he does not show in his incident most of his accent or what happened...

Gus and Woody said that DAN was not being completely accurate with what they were being told and when by DAN. It will be interesting to see if Gus and Woody are also being completely accurate with what they said and when they said it, as evidenced by the complete transcripts, not certain key...

Lots of deleted posts, makes this topic even harder to follow.

Oh, I agree. I want to see the transcripts of Gus phone calls, before I will believe what he said in the video about being treated like any other member, which right now doesn't sound so appealing.

If Woody did not receive special treatment due to Dive Talk and its exposure. Then why was he able to talk to their CEO? Would the avg. insured be able to discuss reimbursement and problems with the CEO? The video does not say whether Visa, Master Card or for that matter AMEX were notified...

Do you think since Woody violated the terms of service that it is strange that not only did DAN pay but reimbursement came quickly, do you think this treatment and waiver of the rules was due to his celebrity and the reach of his Dive Talk channel and the negative PR that DT can generate? Or did...

Does anyone have a Dive insurance recommendation other than DAN ?

Can I buy the car under the car cover ? Where are you located ?

Mike, thanks for the reminder. I will watch it tonight. When are we going diving?

In the 1990s on this liveaboard the Capt. policy was no pony bottles allowed. He felt they would be used to extend bottom time. I had an exception made, since this was not disclosed in the trip registration. The only tanks onboard were AL80s. There also was no Nitrox. WO checking my dive log...
