Ah, but people who know the place should know better.

That's not the same! Hawaii is the name of the State of Hawaii. It
happens
to have an island that is also known as Hawaii, the Big Island.

Only to the Clueless Newbies and travel agencies and travel
organizations
that target the Clueless Newbies clients. Enough of that. YOU knew
what
the correct designation should be, and all your examples are only
misnomers
for the reason I stated.

How about the DMs briefing divers when *I* was on the Tahiti Aggressor

You heard it from ME, that it was 5-6 knots max, and perhaps the
Tahitian
Aggressor crew saw my posting too (amidst a flamewar against some
Aggressor haters flaming the entire Fleet because of an incidence
elsewhere, so much so that a lawsuit against the villants was
considered
by the Fleet. So, by the time YOU went on the liveaboard, they had
revised their briefing to the more realistic estimate -- which was the
one
*I* gave, in MY trip report.

It was you. Nobody in my chartered complained about Pierre except
about
the fact that they couldn't keep up with Pierre in the swift current.
At at
5-knot current, hand-holding by a DM is not possible even if he wanted.
Those who can't hack it should have stayed on the boat, and some did.

If Pierre was no longer part of the crew, why should his name even came

up, except for some whiner like Greg Mossman? Dive boat crew members
know how to placate clueless whiners -- by telling what THEY like to
hear,
not that they knew anything about Pierre.


> None of us had problems sticking with Pierre,


How would YOU know, if you've never dived with Pierre? We were briefed
about the 12 knot current (by an American DM) and was told we should
NEVER get away from the edge of the pass.

As soon as we got into the water, Pierre headed straight toward the
middle of the pass because he saw an 18-foot tiger shark. Several of
us
followed, even though I didn't see the tiger shark. Near the end of
that
dive, I was the only diver who was still with Pierre.


> By the end of the trip, Pierre was diving alone.


You're just repeating 2nd or 3rd hand hearsay, Pierre was NEVER diving
along on my charter. He always had ME with him, and often several
other
divers who are not clueless newbies like Greg Mossman was, at that time
of Greg's beginner-diver status.

I didn't miss anything (except the 18-foot tiger shark on my trip).
Apataki is

You're exactly right. The entire crew were avid Reef Fish readers and
couldn't wait each night to download your latest posts over the sat phone.

If they couldn't keep up with him, they obviously didn't know what a waste
of time it was to keep up with him.

Pierre was part of the crew when the rest of the crew confided in me about
the reason why they couldn't get rid of him.

Why would you say I've never dove with Pierre when I dove about 20 dives
with Pierre?

And you didn't see the tiger shark. Pierre imagined an 18-foot hammerhead
on our trip. No one saw the hammerhead either. What a surprise.

Obviously I wasn't on your charter, I was on my charter. On my charter
Pierre was diving alone by the last day since no one wanted to dive with
him. We all preferred to dive with Mike instead.

We had 5 knots there, so it was swift enough for me and the fifty or so
sharks that were stampeding.

Greg,

Give it up. Bob is incapable of admitting defeat.

He challenged us and when he didn't like our answers he did what he did with
you, he changed the rules.

In our case he called us liars.

When my daughter posted her IQ as 167 which embarrassed this moron, he
repeated it as if she had said 1.67.

Fucking moron.

When I said that I had been admitted to Penn's Wharton School in 1951, this
baboon called me a liar and suggested that my IQ was single digit.

Fucking moron.

Fight your fight, Greg. Bob still insists that he won his IQ challenge with
you and rants that I am a liar when I suggest that he lost.

Apparently that's too much for Greg to understand that his analogy of
Tahiti
to Hawaii was completely flawed.

That was to answer your clueless question where the "12 knot current"
idea came from.

> Pierre again? No wonder.


The 12-knot current briefing came from the 'Merkin DM, not Pierre. You

should go back and re-read my trip report.

That's what Clueless Newbies say about Cozumel currents too. Remember
Cozumel, where you made your debut only a couple of years ago as the

And why should the crew "confide" in Greg Mossman, an obvious newbie in
diving, about a FORMER DM, except whiny Greg brought it up and they
just want to say something Greg liked to hear to get a few more bucks
of
tips from Greg? You must have tipped them at least $5 for the week.
eh?

You were the one who said Pierre was no longer a DM when you were on
the charter. I dived with Pierre in Coco's Island too, but it was a
different
Pierre. There are even more Pierres in the world than Greg, and you
are
sounding more and more like Greg Morrow, Evelyn's (Divamanque)
trolling partner of the "two trolls that pass in the night" fame.

If I didn't see the tiger shark, even though Pierre saw it, it would
have been
the easiest thing for me to lie about having seen it, just like most
scuba
divers lie about their diving experience, like Greg Mossman.

You didn't make it clear until now that Pierre was on YOUR charter.
You
kept saying he was no longer a DM by the time you were on the Tahiti
Aggressor, at least several months after I dived with Pierre on it.

Big deal. How do you know there weren't 80 or more sharks in my dives
with Pierre? Just another dive with sharks. For someone like you who
couldn't tell a grey reef, from a bullshark, from a lemon, your use of
the
word "stampede" was only symptomatic of your hyperbole of having seen
5 sharks and it was your "BULL", aka "bullshit" that was doing the
stampede.

There's no need to shout. This is a civil newsgroup and our "pissin
contest" is extremely on-topic, unlike your rude one-sentence rant.
Debating the merits of diving in French Polynesia and discussing the
attributes of a certain divemaster there couldn't be more on-topic.

In other words, fuck off.

I stand by my comments. Drift diving means drifting WITH the current, not
AGAINST the current. It's a real easy concept to grasp. Those DMs that
can't grasp it should stick to making coffee. I bet Pierre makes a fine
cafe au lait. I did try one of his hand-rolled cigarettes, but they
unfortunately weren't as good as the ones I've tried back home.

Probably because he wasn't a former DM and they were getting sick of our
grumbling about him and wanted to distance themselves from our ire.

Isn't $5 what I'm supposed to tip on a liveaboard?

No, I said that Pierre is no longer a DM since we'd been on the boat. He
was the DM on our boat. He is no longer a DM on the boat, from what I've
heard from others. Is that clearer now?

But since your trip was only several months before mine, and your Pierre
sounds just as incompetent as our Pierre, it's safe to say they were the
same person.

You should actually read what I said. It's very clear, especially to
someone without ESL issues.

Just because all sharks look alike to me doesn't mean I can't count them.

What's really asinine is that you can't even get simple details right, so
either you made up the entire trip or you're very senile.

For instance, when I mentioned the shark stampede at Apataki, you said "> I
didn't miss anything (except the 18-foot tiger shark on my trip). > Apataki
is > not the swift drift pass."

I'll quote it again: "Apataki is not the swift drift pass"

Now I'll quote the latest Aggressor log for Tahiti:

"Day 4 found us waking up in the sleepy pearl farming atoll of Apataki,
where we started off nice and slow with 2 corner dives, fish-holes and
Anchor Point. These are great fish ID sites with Scorpionfish, lionfish,
Schools of beautiful African Pompano, Blue Trevally Horse Eye Jacks,
Emperors and Chevron Barracuda. After a filling Asian Buffet for lunch we
headed out for two adrenaline dives in Tehere Pass, where we found a very
strong current on the first run, about 5 knots, on both dives we saw
hundreds of Grey Reef Sharks,"

What's that? Very strong current, about 5 knots, in Tehere Pass? Hundreds
of Grey Reef Sharks?

Obviously they didn't take you to Tehere Pass on your trip because they
realized you couldn't handle it.

You can stand, or lie, or sleep on it all you want. This is a free
country.
But you have adequately established your inexperience in scuba diving
and scuba locations.


Wow, I am impressed how quickly you jumped on my reply. You must
have stayed up all night waiting for it. Sorry for keeping you
waiting. I
didn't get up for breakfast till 9:30 am and the ship is not scheduled
to
arrive Grand Cayman till noon.

You have just PROVED what I posted before I saw this latest post of
yours.

Read:

"Why some lawyers and unemployed and unemployable".

You fit the Answers PERFECTLY, Greg.

Congratulations.

-- Bob.
