Not all about diving.  Not by a long shot.  There were more than
that many posts in Scuba-SE on intro the first DAY in Scuba-SE
after Nick's massacre if Scuba-L.

What happened to Nick's intended and promised MOVE to his private
dungeon, run by his majordomo -- sounds like a torturing tool
to me, by a dominitrix.  :-)

What you saw was a temporary glitch resulted from your Fiji stuff
and Hugh's artificial stimulant posts (as he had done every time
I said Scuba-L was dying), and the same cheerleading by Chuck
Hopf and his fairy mate Jan.   I am just summerizing a few of
the posts I read from the thread subjects I saw.   Did Jan talk
about her diving there?  Did Chuck?  Did Cosma?


As for what you read from this list this morning, you SHOULD sigh
because that's what a TYRANT and CENSOR does and did to two
otherwise perfectly good lists.

WE (Scuba-SE) have the FREEDOM to discuss, disagree, and talk about
such issues which are MORE IMPORTANT than just a few dive reports
which we have plenty to read.   I can only pity those who can
thrive only in an environment run by a tyrannical and senseless
CENSOR, tied to a strait-jacket on what and how they can express
what they have to say, and can only go to a neighborhood
environment to TROLL.

That's the difference between these two LISTS, Don, and you know
it!
