It was attributed to you by the TECHDIVER poster, because the 
passage I quoted started with "Lee, ..."


You then

You did, in rec.scuba, AFTER Hugh Huntzinger stepped in and
explained his version of the physics of it.

Why don't you quote YOURSELF, from that thread, BEFORE 
Hugh's explanation to you -- after which you waffled.


You

You conveniently snipped THESE paragraphs in my post, that the
discussion was about NEUTRAL BUOYENCY, and Lee Bell claimed
he could be neutrally buoyancy throughout a dive by shifting 
his breathing pattern alone.

That has become your slogan in every post in which you spoke about me.
The fact that you repeat a falsehood doesn't make it true.

I have lots of better things to do, but never too busy to correct
Lee Bell's LIES.

Lee Bell also LIED about me not knowing what an EPIRB was, when
he popped out of his killfile in rec.scuba when someone else was
flaming me.   Each time I produced QUOTED evidence, of quotes
by Lee Bell, that he was the one who erred.   

Since he had me killfiled, he didn't read those posts that
exposed him, and he kept sticking the SAME FOOT in his mouth
three times after my post that exposed him -- each time I
simply reposted the same post in its entirety.  Lee FINALLY
caught  on, presumably because one of his pals tipped him 
off that he was repeatedly shooting his own foot.

Here's ONE of those repeats by Lee.

3rd perfect sunny day for DIVING.   I am diving with one 
Greg Mossman of rec.scuba, with whom I had so many flamewars
that those who ganged up with him, when he was wrong, was
finally listed as rec.scuba's Dysfunctional Gang.

In that respect, Greg is like Bjorn with whom I used to have
some pretty strong flamewars, but when the issues were 
clarified, there was no longer the need for any future
flamewars, and Bjorn and I had NOT had any discussion that
could remotely considered as flame wars, even though there
were several topics in which we were on EXTREME opposite
points view, e.g., Bush's invasion of Iraq.

The difference with Lee Bell is that he would NOT admit any
of his errors, even when he accused me of not knowing 
where Georgetown Pier was, where I board the Cayman 
Aggressor every year, when Lee was the one who was mistaken,
by MILES, because he thought the Georgetown Pier was in 
the part of Georgetown miles away.   But Lee kept on
arguing and arguing.

That's exactly what Lee is doing about all those threads
on Buoyancy Control and NEUTRAL BUOYANCY.  He erred badly
and everyone who read those thread knew immediately, except
Lee would argue and argue and argue, while waffling and 
changing his stories each time.

That's the kind of ARGUMENT that can never be tolerated,
no matter what Lee does or say on other things.
