Underwater gnome threat 'returns'

[gfisher4792]

Wasn't sure where to stick this story. Scuba Humor didn't sound right, as deaths are associated with it. Maybe in the Europe forum, but thought is might get more exposure here. If it gets moved, so be it. Here's the story: Gnome threat

Those divers that died must have gotten bubbles up one's whoopsy daisey.
I wonder if this is where the traveling gnome lives? (Travelocity gnome)

Wow, I always thought that roaming gnome guy on TV was really cool. I didn't know he had a hidden dark agenda.

But after reading the article, didn't they make the situation worse by removing the gnomes so someone would just migrate them to a deeper depth? Didn't anyone consider this?

Ummm you can go to Northwest Ohio, there's a really friendly gnome there who is waiting to be visited.

From the article:
"It's a very risky thing. In Wastwater, the water is very cold, which puts a lot of extra pressure on your body. It is very clear water which gives you a false sense of security."

Oh well, living & learning.
Did he really say this?

So what are his GPS cords?

the water is very cold, which puts a lot of extra pressure on your body.

I took that to mean *physiological* pressure not *PSI* pressure.

We have one here in the Seattle area too ... at a dive site in a town called Mukilteo. But here he is called a troll ... and his name is TOM (for troll of Mukilteo) ...

Was that supposed to be "psychological" pressure?

I think *physiological* pressure is *PSI*
