What locations are you talking about in your post? Heck, you don't even
mention equipment.

I read your post, thinking a "wet blanket" was some new way to keep warm
underwater, and all I got was a whiny rant that contributed more to the
problem it was complaining about than any of the posts it indicted. Talk
about a waste of my time. I just may sue you.

Not only that, it has already prompted two more time wasting posts.
Shameful.

BTW, Robert, messages anywhere in the rec.scuba hierarchy, tend to get to
those with the answers. Many, perhaps most of us read and respond in all
three groups.

For what it is worth, Robert, I thought your post a perfectly valid and
constructive one.

I also agree that a discussion group on accidents or near accidents would be
interesting and beneficial.

Keep 'em, coming, mate!

There's a good and active group/mailing list at yahoogroups. It is
moderated, and there are some very knowledgeable people there. Look for
"divingaccidents"
