Re: Booster questions

PP blending is easy and cheap. I've been doing it for years and every time I think I'm wasting money and should get a booster, I revisit the initial cost, continuing maintenance, and tremendous amount of time it would add to my filling process. I then swap out my O2 tank, with $7 of gas in it, for a...

Hey Jeff - I have an HOA meeting this Thursday but I'm only 20 minutes from Redondo which is my usual haunt. I'll get with you to schedule a dive sometime next week if you are interested. Do Thursday usually work best for you?

I realized a bit too late that everyone else was either scooter driving or not diving but lucked out as the last two kickers headed for the water allowed me to join as a third. A big thanks to Alex and Becky for a great dive. Vis was good and there was lots to see: Sail Fin and Gunnel galore, baby W...

Re: Again.....New In Federal Way

Bob is your man if you are looking for someone with patience, skill, and direction on configuring your new gear. I'm also in Federal Way and would be happy to dive with you but you are going to have to drop a name. I'm just not comfortable referring to you by my interpretation of your logon.

Hey Bob,

I hope you realize your avatar is not a convincing argument for new divers to come dive with you. :nutty:

I've been carrying your warm water wing n plate in my truck for months figuring that I would run into you somewhere. Let's get together for a dive.

Anyone ever done a Day Island drift and gotten out at Titlow? Sure seems feasible and a lot of fun. I know I did a Narrows drift dive with Rob in the Stroke and we pulled a couple of divers out of the water which could have done it if they had a clue where they were and were diving something other t...

Hey Kevin,

It's good to hear your demented views o life, politics, and why hedge hogs are so more reliable that ground hogs at predicting an early spring or long winter. I've been meaning to ring you up as I have a few cast iron cookin questions.

That was my first dive on the Knot and after all the stories I've heard, we couldn't have had better conditions. It was actually a contingency plan for us.
