    Another thing I'd like to know is what was the born-date, last hydro, and vis date on those. Wouldn't it be interesting if they were the bad alloy?

    Nope. I'd be more interested in the color of rope on the stage rig and whether he covers his hose clamps with hollow nylon sheath.

    The bad alloy only kills when they explode. They don't make people disappear mysteriously...no 6351 mafia...

    . . . I'm just thinking . . . if someone didn't realize how thorough LE can be . . . they might leave behind tanks with little value. . . like having a broken valve, or of bad alloy.

    After all, it would suck to leave behind a GOOD tank and GOOD regulators . . . .

    itunes, but don't waste your time or money, the JILL H video is better but the problem is that with any type of "documentary" involving an activity like this one is that in order to generate interest from the masses you have to make compromises, in the end it's no surprise that a diver that wasn't trained and tried to break-in to a gate died.

    His final comments to his parents were telling-like he was saying good bye.

    Is it clear? No? Well....let's go anyways.

    I felt the same way when I heard that.

    It's not the years in your life that matter, but the life in your years.

    If his goal was to become a diving instructor, I find it odd it appears he failed to value dive instruction. Interesting docu-drama. I shall wait to see Jill's film.
