disgusting problem at JB

Why leave them on the ground with so many antennas around??

I don't know how you guys take them off on scene, is it really any issue to wait till you get home? How many cave divers are getting l lucky between the dive site and their shower?

All joking aside, it's not funny. I've been to JB when there were private parties at Pavilion 1. You'll go into the restroom in the morning and everything's fine, but you go back in the afternoon and it's a mess. I've mentioned this to Andrew at Parks and Rec, making sure he knows it's not the cave divers making the mess.

But when there are catheters on the ground, we can't blame that on the swimmers. Folks, keep the place up or we'll lose it.

You can at Ginnie. Look at all the "accidents" running around and it's clear people aren't using the right kind of condoms for the job.

It would fit right in with some of the other Florida Constitution Amendments that make it on the ballot.

Hopefully the National Pee Valve Association will committ their powerful lobby to prevent a pee valve ban from ocurring.

I was at Ginnie last week and picked up two that were left on one of the benches in the Pavilion. I didn't want to but like us all I don't everyone thinking badly of us divers. I know sometimes when taking them off you can put it down to climb into a pair of shorts or pants and then forget to pick up. I am sure I have before as well so I saw my picks ups as a pay back!! Damn there is so much to remember with this diving:)

Yes, thank you to anyone who picks up trash, especially when it's not theirs. I know a number of cave divers who seem to be incapable of walking past any piece of trash without picking it up. Thank you all!

There are two kinds of people - people who make messes and create problems, and people who clean up messes and solve problems. Your reward is that you get to be a member of the second group!

I use Sam's regulator to pick them up. You just pinch the mouthpiece to grab the cath and throw it away. It keeps your hands clean.

I don't know what to do if you're solo diving...

Cheers,

Don't ban pee valves, ban idiots.

Put a return deposit on them like cans and bottles. Take them back to where you bought them to get the deposit . . . oh, this idea might not work now that I think about it!
