Scuba Forum / General / June 2005What happened to Techdiver List??
After several years away from the sport I am working my way back. Killing time on a rainy day reading up on what used to be staples for me (sites by Capt. JT, Christina Young, Mikey at AUE). Only JT seems to still be active... That lead me to want to scan thru some techdiver archives and see it has been dead since mid-late 2003. A quick google search didn't find anything. Has a replacement emerged??? TIA... // Jeff > After several years away from the sport I am working my way back. > Killing time on a rainy day reading up on what used to be staples for me [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > // Jeff http://www.thedecostop.com http://www.uwex.us/uwex.htm (Mike Barnett's list) http://www.cavediver.net There is also a quest list at the GUE website that charges money. AFAIK, GI is no longer active on the lists, even the GUE one. The old Techdiver and Cavers lists are dead. All of the above lists are moderated and nowhere near as entertaining as the old lists were. >>After several years away from the sport I am working my way back. >>Killing time on a rainy day reading up on what used to be staples for me [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > The old Techdiver and Cavers lists are dead.

I did see a nice (but short) piece on GI and the WKPP on Discovery HD just a few months back. The wkpp site seems all but dead as well...

George turned the project over to Casey... family business matters left little time for running the WKPP. Weather has created a lot of difficulties in making further progress in the WKPP, which explains the lack of updates. I think they've done only 2 or 3 (research) dives in the last 2 years. --- Rich http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ > Decostop is very lightly moderated. Really?

There have been a few instances where it appears that moderator personal views get in the way of open discussion. John >> Decostop is very lightly moderated. > >Really? They moderate posts about regulator parts. Same as Tundrasolutions moderates posts about lemon law discussions. They don't want to get stuck in the middle of a legal battle under conspiracy clauses. They're just covering their a.ses. --- Rich http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ >>You hinted at exactly what I enjoyed about that list... > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > --- Rich > http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ A new GUE list is in the works with George as moderator John > A new GUE list is in the works with George as moderator I thought Mr. Clark was going to moderate the new list > > A new GUE list is in the works with George as moderator > > I thought Mr. Clark was going to moderate the new list =;-) Too funny. How many people remember the old days of Mr Clark, spoofs, and other pizza-stained posts? >>A new GUE list is in the works with George as moderator > > I thought Mr. Clark was going to moderate the new list > Too funny.

Drooling idiot farm animal stupid trailer trash bonesmugglers (yes, it was one word) And let's not forget Billy W, who called everyone Clyde, after the "drooling moron" who sits on the side of the stage at revival meetings. >A new GUE list is in the works with George as moderator I like George and his style... but somehow, that name and that word don't sound right in the same.... err.... book :) --- Rich http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ >>You hinted at exactly what I enjoyed about that list... > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > --- Rich > http://richlockyer.tripod.com/ Rich, Thanks for the info! // Jeff > George turned the project over to Casey... family business matters > left little time for running the WKPP. Right, as in, he had to go to work for real. As near as I can tell by passing by occasionally, the business seems to be doing as well as ever. Hopefully, the change has been good for him and the business. |
