    Default Cave accident article

    In the Oct. 2009 "Scuba Diving" magazine, there is an article titled "Death in the Dark". It gives sketchy details of an accident, but no location of the spring is given. Has anybody else seen this story? I couldn't find any similar accidents in the accident reports. Some of the details just do not make sense to me, like "He would regularly check his air supply on his illuminated dive computer and could see it slowly dropping toward zero." ...And details like "He shed his gear...hoping the flow of water leaving the spring would bring his body to the surface in time for his friends to revive him." The story is too weird for me. BTW, I'm a new poster, although I've been lurking here for three years. Hope I'm doing this right.
