Scuba Forum / General / July 2006Scuba diver dies after being rescued
seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2003136472_dige19m.html Scuba diver dies after being rescued A woman scuba diver who was pulled out of the water off Alki Beach after losing consciousness Tuesday evening has died, according to the King County Medical Examiner's Office. The diver was initially taken to Harborview Medical Center shortly after she and her diving partner were rescued near Seacrest Park around 7 p.m. The U.S. Coast Guard, which assisted the Seattle Fire Department in the rescue, said the woman and her partner were about 100 feet down in the popular diving area when one of the two ran out of air or experienced a malfunction in a breathing device. The two used the buddy breathing system to ascend until they were approximately 10 feet below the surface of the water when the woman lost consciousness, the Coast Guard said.

What we learned is that there is still a person here who would bother to read, let alone quote and reply to, Carlita. Scott, Backoff! Hush, back in your cage! I'm not only pretty new here, butt also can't spend time here every day off the week. Sometimes it takes a bit time to learn to know a whole lot of people a bit personally. That would make "... there STILL is a person..." more like a "... there AGAIN is...". Now you know this, explain to me why I should have ignored him/his posting? And if you think your the kind a guy that should be helping people like me, feel free to start a weekly "people not to read" thread, maybe with an "immediate killfile top ten". Furthermore I take from your response you find Carl's posting (or all of his postings) as uninteresting as I did. Thank you for your support!

You aint wearing any stripes. You have never humped Mt. MF. When you learn what that means, get back to me, and then maybe I'll laugh when you presume to bark orders at me. Hwæt!

We all learned that they weren't DIR because DIR divers don't die. That's rule #8. or #9, I forget. > > So the conclusion is that we didn't learn anything from posting these > > deaths here (actions to avoid or take, material faults to look for) except > > that news travels faster these days. > > We all learned that they weren't DIR because DIR divers don't die. That's > rule #8. or #9, I forget. Generally, DIR divers are not authorized to die. If one dies without permission, they are in a world of sh.t. Dennis Hwæt!

The r.s. goons exhibit many of the same arrogant traits that are seen in the divers who die. Kimber's one example who just got lucky.

My comment wasn't on nót posting incidents, but on posting incidents without details related to diving and diving-gear/diving-techniques. Just saying it was a diver that died doesn't help much, in my opinion. Although opinions obviously scare some people enough to lose their manners... Scott! And don't worry, I won't get caught up in a name calling game, I learned that much to know a few arround here can do that much better then me!

Actually Spake is right for the grammar. Itwould be Thee Speakest, Thou Spoke, Thus Spake. Olde Englishe is not as straight forward as English is these days, Chaucer never had a dictionary, everyone made their own spelling, but the grammar was solid. Hwæt!
