Tim,

I'm sure we can rig you up with whatever you need. Maybe not doubles but we can always try.

I was wearing a 3mil suit and thicker gloves and hood. Never felt chilly.

& I'd definitely be up for more diving. Be it a full day on Saturday or adding a couple dives on Monday. We could always leave the doce earlier in the morning and then skip a full sit down lunch to help get the drive home started earlier.

Hi David!

I'm glad to see you found the board and the GLWC and Lake Effects forums.

Diving with you was a joy and not something you need to worry about. We were all new once and someone took us under their wings. In fact June did just that with most of us (me included) on Sunday's dive. She led us on dives of two wrecks we were unfamiliar with and showed us good ways to 'deal' with the current and still see the wrecks safely.

Wish I could help with the ear questions but I'm really not qualified. You've probably found it but there are medical forums for those type of questions. & I know there is a little video referenced in many of the posts regarding sinuses and clearing. If you can't find it, try PM'ing pipedope as he usually refers to it.

Thanks a bunch Paula.

Tim-are you a programmer?

Also, what is that you are diving on in your pic? It looks like a school bus!

I'm not a programmer,... But I play one on TV....

No, I script a little. I'm an infrastructure geek. Servers, networking, Windows, SMS, and the like....

Yea - that pic was taken by Mitten Diver at the last big Meet & Greet at Gilboa Quarry in Ohio....

Me too... Well I was... for Aon - till I got outsourced... Now I work for CSC and I get to move to Florida. Guess who came out better in that deal...

Uhh - to quote Scot, 'Its the closest thing we have to a cave'. Scool Buses, Drainage Pipes, Boats, Airplanes, we'll take all the useless items to dive around in the cold recesses of Midwest Quarries... Not everyone gets one of the Great Lakes within an hours distance. Plus - you hafta have someplace to go to get your 'fix' when you get blown out.....

Ouch-my brother works for Aon in Burlington, Vermont. He's a number cruncher.

Computer Sciences Corp in Florida--very nice..

LOL! You've got that one right Heather.

I don't know what the guys' problem was. I had no trouble when I asked for the key to the woman's restroom. They just smiled and told me how to get in.
