Scuba Forum / General / November 200710 lb backplates
We just finished a run of ten pound, 1/4" backplates that are gorgeous. Ping me offline if you want one, I have a couple extra that I can let go.

I hate to say this 'cause you're my good buddy and all, but this is just as spammy as the rest of the spam that often shows up here. You only have a couple, so market them via e-mail to the folks you think will buy one. That's still spam, but at least it's not prohibited rec.scuba spam. You can even send me an e-mail and I'll store it with the mail-order prescription drugs and the penis enlargements. > On Oct 23, 6:39 am, pugetsounddi...@gmail.com wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I hate to say this 'cause you're my good buddy and all, but this is > just as spammy as the rest of the spam that often shows up here.

I'm too busy enjoying the fires. It's quite nice around here, being fired up in all directions. The sky is like a perpetual dawn and I don't even have to wake up early.

Whatever. First, we've seen, many times, the inaccuracy of your "reflections". Specifically on freedoms, on the several occasions we cite a specific disparity, you mumble something to the effect that "society is better off without that one", or some such bullshit. Secondly, while I can't speak for Maine, it's a fact your neighbors in northern Vermont think you're a bunch of mindless, clueless, idiot lapdogs. And non-driving f.cks as a whole.

I guess we just take them so much for granted. That's why it comes as a surprise when someone like Scott harps about the lack of them. He doesn't seem to be able to actual qualify that claim though.

If the laws were just a bit more reasonable regarding suppressors, mine would not be noisy either. Guns are dangerous tools that have to be handled properly to ensure that no harm comes to the undeserving. As far as I know, nobody's suggested banning other dangerous tools. Perhaps I should keep quiet, but I have power saws, an arc welder and an oxyacetylene torch too. More members of my family (one) have been injured by a table saw than by guns (none) despite the fact that my father, grandfather, uncle, and I all owned, handled, carried and even fired them for years.

The action took place to help resolve the many breakins of late in homes, hotels, apartments and cars at diving locations. A special team under direction of Melvin St. Jago arranged the raids. The police confiscated weapons and other evidence in five homes in Tera Kor? and Antriol. Arrested were Bonaire-born R.R.P. (29), F.C.W. (34), R.F.E. (24), R.P.S.E. (22), I.P.S. (27), J.F.B. (20), E.A.W. (17), R.I.N.C. (24) of Colombia, I.J.P.P. (28) of Cura?ao and a woman A.L.C-S. (40) of the Dominican Republic. Prosecutor David van Delft's top priority now is getting the persons arrested locked up because there are not many cells in Bonaire and, according to Van Delft, all the cells in the House of Detention and the police cells in Kralendijk and Rincon are full. According to Chief of Police Jan van der Straten, the crime level of the past two months has been unacceptable. "With the support of Minister Elvis Tjin Asjoe, the Lt. Governor and the Executive Council, the police could do their job this time. The police corps could use all technical means to investigate the break-ins," he added. gc > I did already know about locking the car. I have been wondering what > is safe to leave in the car. Do we need to wear our wetsuits when we > drive to the site, and back. Do they steal clothes, too? They will steal anything, including clothing and sandals. The dive shop told us it was ok to leave tanks in the truck, but guess what - they were stolen. I didn't bother telling the shop that their tanks were gone; it's their problem (they don't keep track of what you take). If the police won't put these a.sholes in jail, the shops should put them in the hospital. It's really given Bonaire a bad name. I used to like to go there, but now it's just another Carribean slum. > They will steal anything, including clothing and sandals.

Take some tanks that didn't pass hydro and fill them full of molten lead and once it's cool, put them in your car in plain view... Hmmm... Let's see... At 11.34 g/cm^3 and an AL80 having an internal volume of 11.11 liters, we end up with 125,987.4 grams and with 453.59237 grams per pound, we get 277.75 lbs for the lead plus 31.4 lbs for the empty tank, giving us 309.15 lbs for the "decoy tank"...
