No replies to this? Wow. Back on Cousteau's 100th birthday a manager at one of LA's radio stations wanted his bosses to approve a piece on JYC's birthday including an interview with me. The bosses didn't think that story was important enough. How sad when the truly greats in SCUBA are ignored, especially by those who have directly benefited by their early pioneering efforts.

Must have a sense of humor to view my web site!
