MR> after all. Although we too have great whites on my coast line in the
MR> area known as the "Red Triangle" from Stinson Beach to the Farallon
MR> Islands to Santa Cruz. That is the great white breeding area. I have 
MR> yetto do any diving off my own coast not due to fear but for lack of 
MR> a divepartner. I hope sometime soon I will be able to dive the 
I've been having trouble with my modem connection so I hope this gets 
through.  I've been diving up in the northeastern United States and Nova 
Scotia for the past 24 years or so.  We've seen great whites off the coast 
here but this year was the first time that I actually saw one in the water.  
Ordinarily the sharks don't come in to the areas where I tend to dive but the 
seals did this year and the sharks followed.  We actually had a couple of 
beaches close due to shark sightings this year.  On one of these we saw a 
white shark chasing seals and by the time it hit the 11:00 news some 
biologist at the university went on record as saying it was probably a nurse 
shark, yeah right not the one we saw it wasn't.  At any rate that's my story 
to share this evening so I'll go back to trying to get my modem to work 
properly.
 
Be wet and well.
