My 16 year old son is taking a scuba class this summer and is looking
forward to exploring the local ocean areas. We live in south Orange County,
Ca so pretty much everything from the Mexican border up to Santa Barbara is
within driving distance.

Are you looking for scuba diving flippers at discount prices?  I found
a website that has cheap brand name scuba diving flippers from Dacor,
Mares, and Tusa to name a few.  Check out the site at http://www.buyscubaflippers.com
and find great scuba diving flippers for sale at ...

Looks like I may have some women's gear for sale.  Carol's ear perf
appears to be permanent.

Is it okay to put your regulator/dive computer/BC in luggage that is going to
be checked in and be in the cargo area of a jetliner? I'm guessing that if
the cargo area is pressurized, you don't need to worry about it. Thanks.

Can anyone recomend any vintage underwater documentaries or films ?
I've actually been watching the original "Flipper" TV series with my
youngest son...and that has some great stuff in it !
cheers,
