    Earthquake in Mexico

    There was a big earthquake in south west Mexico today. Have any tremors been noticed by divers in the Yucatan caves at the time of the earthquake? On the same subject: can any diver tell of having experienced ground shaking while in a cave?

    Jackson Blue silt out

    I heard a rumor that an instructor panicked deep inside Jackson Blue during a silt out caused by one of his student and left the cave, leaving his students alone. They found their way out and were already outside when the instructor came back with help. Any truth to this story??

    Is it repairable?

    My brand new CO tester spent one minute in one foot of sea water and flooded. It does not work at all, no sign of life. Is it fixable? I would have thought it was somewhat water resistant.:depressed:

    Variety or repetition

    For my next 10 day trip to Mexico this summer, what would you recommend: Dive a different cave everyday or stick to the same but explore different directions?
