Russ,

<<<I'll get address info and further details out to directly.>>>

    Got em, , , , I'll read over them tonight and get the stuff you need
in the mailbox shortly.

<<<If you have time, unlurk for a bit and tell us a little about
yourself...what kind
of diving you like to do, how you support your diving habit, and
anything else you'd like to mention - we can always use tips how to
support the diving habit.  :-)>>>

    I'm a 53 year old (born and raised) Atlantan.  Went into the Honda
Motorcycle biz as a "Go-Fer" mechanic in about 69/70 and then for the
distributor (American Honda) in 1980. Unlike Lee,  I was one of those
Dirt Bike guys. I rode competitively up untill the mid 80's and still
pull one out every now and again to go beat the bushes!! Too old and fat
to be competitive now but I still like throwing a leg over the seat of a
Dirt Bike!! As for diving  I procrastinated most my life but in 1992 a
girlfriend mentioned she'd like to get certified and the rest is
history.  Uh, , , she's History too, , unfortunately!! <G>  I'm your
basic WarmWaterWimp but have done at least one trip where diving "dry"
was highly recommended. My preference is Liveaboards and I've been on
them in OZ, , the Red Sea, , Papua New Guinea, , Belize, ,  Turks &
Caicos, , , Vancouver British Columbia and  the Flower Gardens (Texas).
I'll be on the Star Dancer in Palau next March. I support this habit
with my (now 20 yr.) job with Honda.  Currently I work within our Legal
Dept. helping out with any technical advice/information about any of our
products. Currently I'm in Ft. Lauderdale doing some of that "Technical
Assistance" stuff and will probably be down here for next three weeks or
so. (Tough Duty <G>) I love diving down here, , , have dived from
Riveria to Key West and this area has some incredibly diverse sites!!
Hopefully I'll get in the water tomorrow morning somewhere!!

<<<I've got two projects in Atlanta right now. Perhaps we could get
together when I'm in town for some superior comestibles and
conversation.  Since Feeesh left Atlanta I figure it's safe now to
return.  :-)>>>

    Anytime!! I live in Dahlonega which is a small town in the foothills
of the mountains. It's about 80 miles North of Downtown.  I'm sure the
stuff you sent me has places for phone numbers so feel free to give me a
call anytime you're there.

<<<Glad to have you aboard!>>>

    Thanks,

Alfred Kirkland
Dahlonega, GA.
