Pthread, I do not know Marcus personally, but have communicated with him by email earlier, and trust that he can prove his words about the new method. However, I understand the feelings of Eric, and I do not think he deserves the disrespect you and Marcus show for him.
trux, I meant exactly not to show any disrespect, I just repeated what I was told and I actually said so. Forgive me if that wasn't clear enough, but I said I did not mean to get into an argument.
It is undeniable Eric published his equalizing manual before 2002 (you can find references to it here on DB, and on the web).
Nobody denies that (that was said also).
So, pthread, please try keeping this discussion civil, without personal attacks, and try showing a bit more respect for one of the greatest freedivers the community ever had.
Trux, if somebody wants respect they should perhaps respond to issues in a way that warrants it. Pulling out meaningless numbers out of a database in an attempt to ridicule others is not something that does. It would have been more than enough for Eric to state his side of things, without the personal attacks you are talking about to me now.
I do agree however that we should get back to the facts.
