It was so well written such that as I read your hellish recollection, it automatically translated into a smooth-flowing movie in my mind! Thanks for entertaining us, and of course, for the moral of the story. Ben, that was a good story for which I had to stifle my laughter here in my open work spaces.

My respect for the man has been in the toilet since last May, but thanks for the reminder that he is, after all, human and as such, given to random acts of kindness. It's good to hear. Smile.

Your story brings to mind my own fond memories of struggling into a thick wetsuit and then penguin-walking into the freezing surf of Monterey Bay. Hint: panty hose makes it go on more easily. And you know what, the fun never ends ... if you don't keep going scuba diving regularly, you'll have to take a refresher course before a dive shop will rent you equipment. That means you'll have to through the whole rigamarole of the check-out dive under water AGAIN. Have fun! And for the record, Dr. Jordan didn't slam either Gallaudet or a "marginalized" minority. He merely expressed his opinions about the motives of the protesters and how their actions influenced the direction of Gallaudet. Being that he had the big picture as the former president of 18 years, I think he knows a little something about what went on behind the scenes. I'd go scuba diving with him any day! LOL!
