"...Sailor eaten by giant clam....." It has a good ring to it. ![]() The cause of the missing cat crew??? Sometimes it is numbingly simple, For example, about 10 years ago in SE Washington somebody got sucked into a concrete irrigation ditch that went underground. So a fire- rescue "dive team" shows up. They send one man down to retrieve the victim. He does not return. They send another "diver" down to rescue the teammate. That guy doesn't respond. They send a THIRD "diver" down to get the other three victims....................... NOBODY returns. Four dead in a ole hole. Its not unusual to have the rescuer become another victim. That's why life guards learn escape maneuvers so they can escape an active victim hell bent on standing on your head. That's why I go recreational SCUBA diving by myself, sail single handed, and drink by myself. In all cases I feel safer. Besides Im the only person who enjoys my company when drunk. |
