That Richie is a smart feller.

I wish that you were as smart. We went to Scotties on Friday night. The food was SOOOO bad that we could not eat it. I had no idea that anyone could ruin steak like that. But the "barladies" compensated. Va va voom! I think that I understand why you went there and it weren't the food!

on the subject of Shadow Divers I would like to say that this book changed my life. as soon as I finished the book I started to learn to dive ( now Advanced Open going for Wreck / Nitrox ) and to get over my fear of fish I did a Shark Dive in the Bahamas. I met John & Riche last year at Beneath the Sea in N.J. Where they signed my copy the guys were great and down to earth.
I think the diving public will love this movie, its the waiting that driving me nuts it was surpose to come out in 2008 but now is pushed back to 2009. stay safe and which were gages

N,

I am flattered, but no one is more interested in the movie coming out than Richie and I???

See you out there.

Nowhere (except maybe Gary's book??) am I anywhere quoted as saying we went to Scotty's for good food??? It was always for the atmosphere, and nowadays the nostalgia. They used to have waiters, from Sri Lanka. Apparently things have changed.

I actually did make the last 4 hours of BTS (at the last minute I postponed my DR flight), and thought about heading up to Scotty's, but you guys were 2 days gone?

Cheers

As I said, the topside research was as compelling to me as the dives (and I LOVE to dive). I just wonder how this will translate in the movie. Scenes with people reading tend to be somewhat boring.

Good luck with that. I'll bet I'll be saying "the book was better" after the movie comes out, though.

You mean have Danny Devito to play John?

haha, guaranteed blockbuster there, with sooooo many possible Arnold sound clips to choose from.

Gary's book specifically mentions the outstanding food at Scotties. And how the wreck is really off the coast of Gibraltar. Turns out that you guys were actually diving an old garbage barge from the 70s. Gary planted the spares box so that he could find it later and get the credit. Apparently you beat him to it and is still mad. Hence the book.

Now that is just good comedy humor.
