| HI Just got back for the Ningaloo Reef cool place talk about outback!! dived in lighthouse bay, the murion islands and of course the navy pier. The Islands was disappointing as the viz was about .5m and the crew (exmouth Dive Center) were so far upthemselves they had to put their wetsuits on inside out!!! the only dive that I would recommend there is the Navy Pier they (Coral Coast dive center) said when I booked on that it was one of the worlds top 10 dive sites (I thought yer right I here that every place I dive) they were not right... it should be number 1!!! I have never seen so many fish over 240 tropical species from nudibrances to giant groupers and sharks everywhere!! I will be coming back to do this dive again!!! The dive crew were very professional and friendly the complete opposite to the other bunch!! see www.ningalooreef.com and book it a truly awesome dive and dive center thanks guys I'll be back soon Mark Florida USA |

Possibly, and if either the OP or Coral Coast Dive post here to explain themselves then I'm happy to retract my accusation of spam. Funnily enough, people are happy to whine about bad service on the NGs, but glowing positive reviews are rare. So rare in fact that I certainly make an initial assumption that they *may* be spam... But anyway, just look at the wording of the original post: > Just got back for the Ningaloo Reef ... This doesn't make any sense, and I assumed they made a typo and meant "Just got back FROM the Ningaloo Reef ...". In this case, where were did they get back TO? The USA perhaps, or so was the implication. But they posted from Australia, specifically co7untry WA.... > thanks guys I'll be back soon Back? Back from where? From the USA? And if so, why posting via a WA country NNTP host? > Mark > > Florida USA This clearly implies he's posting from Florida. Again, maybe I'm wrong. He might actually BE in Florida, and he's ssh'd in to post through Tin on a server here in WA or something like that, but it's not likely really. Especially since a quick scan of google groups shows that the email address he used has never been used before in an archived group, and the nic (cdd) doesn't turn up any posts by "Mark", from Florida, related to diving etc etc.......Anyway, if I am wrong, I'll happily apologise to those involved, but as I said in my previous post, it looks, smells and tastes like spam.

LOL...you *can* get vegitarian spam. It's called "tofu luncheon". Horrible, possibly worse than spam. A better option is vegitarian turkey - "tofurkey". Not much better though. Cheers David M |
