Mike,
Are there any plans in the works to hold a "Scooter demo" for those of us in the Midwest? I believe Gilboa would be just the spot

Best Regards

Don,

Thanks for getting us back on track!

I would like to see the proper way to ride a scooter also. I'd be interested if this were ever to be a possibility.

Gearhead, two others and i will be the ones to be taking the first Gavin scooterclass Mark at 5th D has put together. so there is hope.

Detroit Diver,
I thought with as many folks that are (or soon will be) Cave certified, it would be a logical progression to have something like that in our neck of the woods.

Anyways... I thought you and WJL were doing just fine with the verbal smackdown of the facts on James...

Best Regards
Don

Is DirF a requirement for the class? And I assume that is separate from the lecture/demo?

NetDoc,

Thanks for the clarification. Some boards, in particular rec.scuba, get very frustrated whenever I post anything relating to DIR. More often then not I try especially hard to figure out the rules and play within the system. I was under the impression, and you confirmed it for me, that postings such as I posted where within the province of this board. In fact, I have been encouraged by several to post events such as this. Sadly, rec.scuba has been hijacked by some radical fanatics that freak out whenever the words "DIR" or "GUE" get posted so they invent reasons to perpatuate the myth that it's spam. Somewhat of an ad hoc group of radicals seem to have formed a self-serving "committee" to police a group that they promulgate is police free, to that end no matter how rational a post is, they find some self-serving reason to attack it. Fortunatley this list is much more clear about the rules, but to the extent that I crossed any such line I apologize since my intention was to announce a FREE demonstration to help educate divers in a wide variety of diving topics, and to help put a face to a name and a diving system that is often misunderstood on several scuba forums.

Thanks for your clarification.

Regards,

Michael Kane
