dmoore, just curious what kind of airfare you got? The airfare today is up almost 50 percent from last year. UGH. (from Denver on Continental) Bruce

actually he just put his toe across and said, nah nah nah nah nah. He is still in Nicaragua However it would appear that things are about to change in this stalemate.

Webmonkey, with all do respect, you are continually basing your argument on an assumption that Mrs. Wood hired this DM. Furthermore, while it would be nice if all DMs checked C cards and assessed the divers ability, we know it isn't happening like it should be and PADI sits on the sidelines and...

Great post Moose and I like the idea of your experiment but I don't understand the part about the diver not being able to lie on his back. If I am trying to keep you from getting behind me I am going to do whatever necessary to make sure you don't. If you are talking about him/her lying on the...

I am not challenging this statement but I thought you and your wife were the last ones in the group, do to her equalization problems. There have been many insinuations that the DM should have never let Mrs. Wood get separated. Unless the DM had Mrs. Wood had an agreement, whether written or...

While I don't know if you have been following this thread, how and why this DM ended up on this dive has been unsubstantiated. If we are trying to find culpability this is an important piece of information. She may very well have been added to the boat because of the amount of divers. Her...

Here is a post from a Roatan forum I belong to. Posted today. Should give some insight to the power situation on the island. RECO update As everyone is aware , RECO is currently on the final stretch home of 'rehabilitating' a 10MW Wartsila power plant . A project which began in June of...

West End is a town on the N.W. part of the Island. This is where the majority of the dive ops and restaurants are. AI means all inclusive. Coco view and Fantasy Island are on the other side of the island. Basically you check in and stay within the resort. Everything is included in your...

Which means that when there is no curfew that the government guarantees your safety? It could also mean they don't want political gatherings of those that support the legal and justified removal of the corrupt president.

It means you need to be on private property.

I wish everyone would quit calling this a coup. Because the military was involved it is considered a coup. Zelyas broke the law and per the constitution of Honduras he was removed EXACTLY as the law dictates. Voted on by the congress and ratified by the court system. Legal and justified...

Yeah, West End is just a powder keg. IF you were to have a problem on Roatan it would be near the airport, so it really doesn't matter where you stay. If you are afraid of a problem in Roatan you should not go at all. Journalism is dead, the U.S. media is a joke.

I am leaving today. I can't wait to get out of here and back to my job and shoes and long pants and a clock. Damn, I've been looking for that.

One think I can report is the boat operators are having to limit the amount of fuel they can purchase. Not sure if this is happening at the gas stations for autos but would imagine so. No problems with electricity. Another beautiful day in paradise. Last day to dive as we return home tomorrow.

Dude, what exactly is the point you are trying to make?

Diving was great today and the wind has picked up and cooled things down a bit. Yesterday a cruise boat came in and West Bay was as crowded as I have seen it. While most are concerned as to the reports coming out of the U.S and other countries, there is an overwhelming support for the...

This statement is false. The government was not overthrown. The congress of this nation took action against a president that is attempting overthrow the constitution. Zelaya was trying to ram a referendum through that would eliminate term limits. Chavez is the instigator here. Muy malo hombre.

I am in Roatan now. Business as usual but I think the Taca airlines for domestic are not flying. If you can't make it here on Saturday, than I guess I am not going home because I am going back on that flight. I heard today that the carnival cruise ship will dock tomorrow. I can say this, there...

While I don't have the formula in front of me, you could add 10' to your dive and be safe. If you are diving to 60' round your tables to 70'. 2100 ft is not that high but another thing you need to consider is when you go from sea level to altitude you should wait a couple of hours prior to...

Mary, You are just a little trouble maker aren't you? Hope you are enjoying your trip.
