    How about considering the recovery of the two safety divers who died for Hal's world record deep dive right here in Orlando, Florida?

    This happened at Mystery Sink? Right?

    Yeah, Mystery Sink in Orlando. A group showed a film of the sink last year at the NACD workshop. No one saw a body. Just lots of floating bacteria and silt. Go figure.

    Personally I would perfer people just leave my body alone if I croak in a cave. Crayfish and catfish have to eat also and my cats had their chance!
    I already signed a will that states if I die on land I want to be cremated and have my ashes scattered at River Sink. At least I'll make that connection then!

    Cindy, if you die diving sidemount, you ARE NOT DIR and are not qualified to have ashes scattered under a WKPP permit.

    How about Vin Zant? That way you could swirl down the vortex!

    The last article was written in 1997. The lady who owned the sink can't still be alive. So, anyone know who owns the property now? Anyone in the Orlando area willing to check it out?
