MR> SanFrancisco, in an area called "The Red Triangle"-Why---Great 
MR> Whites.But I think every diver goes thru alot of anxiety before their 
MR> firstdive, especially if they watch the discovery channel and it is 
MR> "SHARK"week. I'd even like to take a look at that cartoon book of

MR> Jawsmusic??
I saw the red triangle NOVA special on PBS.  Was it just me or did that 
particular program reek of 1950's B-grade horror film footage??!??  Actually 
there was one redeeming quality about that special (there was some 
interesting footage of tiger sharks eating sea birds) even though the 
narrator and sound track were borrowed from "Chariots of the Gods" (now I'm 
dating myself).  I don't get the discovery channel though (no time or spare 
cash to invest in cable or sattilite TV).  I hope they do a better job.
 
I think I asked you about this before but there is a chance that I'll be 
coming out to Santa Cruz sometime in the next few months to see an old friend 
of mine and would like to do some diving when I'm there.  How far away are 
you and who do you recommend that I hook up with for any rental gear and 
such?  I recall that you gave me some general info about the area, which I 
appreciated, thank you.
 
Well it's time to go through the ice after some fellow's ice shack now that 
we can get a boat close enough to tow it back home.
 
Be wet and well.
