Human Underwater Breathing

[Dominic]

I was doing one of my occasional web searches to see who's linking to my web page this morning, and I found that far and away the most popular page of mine refferred to was the one about the HUB.

What IS the fascination with this thing??

Oh, and PS Drift - what were you doing complaining about me on DiveOz when that link came up there? On holiday at the time or something? ;)

Same as PaulC - diveforum groupie......

"Yorkshire divers - a friendly and somewhat quieter place than the above listed forums." - what you trying to say Dom?? :lol2:

Moi? :greenangel:
Considering the forum listed immediately above YD is Divernet, are you arguing? :P

Dom, how come your website has a plain background? THis makes it too eay to read the text - don't you know its obligatory to put a complicated wallpaper on there with text of a colour that blends in so you have to strain to see it? ;)

I think you will have to give a better indicator as to the content of the BSAC forum, how about: for the humourless, crowbar-owning diver who likes to argue the case for 'how many angels can dance on the head of a pin' ? &nbsp;:jpshakehead: :smash: :snore:

I was thinking about &quot;It's occasionally useful when I want to clarify BSAC policy about something&quot;

I confess I lost faith in BSAC forums being a useful source of knowledge when I saw the complaints about Diver awarding them the Wooden Weightbelt award, and everyone seemed unable to think of any reason for this award other than &quot;Sour grapes because Diver isn't the BSAC mag any more&quot;.

:smilepong:

[Dr Stevil]

Yeah, I'd heard about the &quot;wooden weightbelt&quot; thing, didn't 'Diver' actually supply a reason? If not, it seems a bit playground styl-ee, ie &quot;you're cr@p because you are....&quot;

Personally, I just think there's too many of the Bring Sledgehammer And Crowbar dinosaurs on-line, plus if you stray too far from dive related topics you get jumped on &quot;what's this got to do with diving...&quot;. At least YD does have a dedicated &quot;wibbling&quot; forum for stuff like humour and other irrelevancies.

I knew things were going downhill when someone is banned for apparent &quot;libelous&quot; statements against a bunch of hacks holidaying at our expense (no offence to the Gavster intended) , especially when that person was one of the few I found interesting (ie Jerry B)

Even for clarifying BSAC policy it could be a great deal better.

BTW you still waiting to do that one last DL drill? If so I'm assuming its one of the rescues, which one?

None taken -

This is Gav &quot;proud to be a hack&quot; Ster. BBC News in his office.

Umm.. the Wooden Weightbelt is a voted-for award. It's the voters who decide on where it's going. You'd have to ask them for the reasoning, not Diver.

That was another reason I was put off by the whinging of &quot;Sour grapes&quot;.

Oh well...

Yup, still got that last dive to do for DL. It's the last dive, the &quot;CBL, surface tow and full-on rescue&quot; one. I'll get around to it someday: Been out of the water recently, had to clear my student debt last month.

Besides, I broke a part on my torch, and rather than just fix it, I'm building a new one from scratch instead
