 LC> Grab a fresh whole lime--usually not to hard to find at a

 LC> Try it, it often works.
 LC> Naturally, do all the other things, too: avoid gasoline

 LC> stare at the horizon, try a scopolamine patch, try to be
 LC> first in the water and last back aboard (this is easy,
 LC> since the other divers will cooperate gladly if they know
 LC> the alternative).
A lot of people also swear by ginger, though no there is no medical evidence 
that supports it.  I know quite a few people that take ginger snaps along 
when they get on the boat -- if nothing else they have some cookies to munch 
on after the dive....
