Richard,

Thanks!

The August 1994 report is the best-known Cozumel Report by Jeff, which
is also found in several other webpages by others, on Cozumel.

The September 1995 trip may have been the only trip Jeff has taken to
Cozumel and I wasn't there to dive with him.  The report speaks for
itself.

As for the "new" (long ago) image of a Nassau Grouper, it was digitized
from a postcard I sent him in 1994 from Nassau, Bahamas.

The image had since been animated in the NED FUC (Frequently Uttered
Complaints) page

http://www.ivydene1.demon.co.uk/nedfuc.htm

in which the Nassau Grouper uttered something other than "Eat Beef"
in the original.  :-)

In that 1994 Nassau trip, I was Dr. Dan Manion's SOB, separated by
about 300 fsw in our max depth <G> when he was PRACTICING for his
world record depth attempt (open circuit scuba on air).  Having
forgotten that my MX-10 camera was good to only 99 fsw, I took it
down to a depth of 170 fsw or so and it successfully took (without
imploding) a few pictures of Dan's rapid ascent from the DEEP, when
his bubbles looked like an exploded atom bomb;  and also some pix
of Dan doing his deco on a tank of EAN80 and a pony of 100% oxygen.

Jeff had those on his webpage (then) for public consumption too, but
I was not able to locate where they are now.  It was probably
somewhere in the (under-construction and unfinished) genesis page
Richard provided.
