He can buy you lots of beers anytime no matter what he did.

The above was merely for the record, relative to Dan Crawford's
role in the Robert Lung caper, as told by Ray Jones.

In more ways than one.  You were narked before you got to the
ledge of the Maracaibo dive in the Cos99NEDfest.  Ray was the
only one (other than myself) who went below 200 fsw, but he
must have been narked too because he didn't know I was 15 fsw
BELOW him, keeping an eye on everyone.  :-)
