What floors me the most is the clarify of the water. I've never seen flooding which was this clean before...


Absolutely, I'm astonished by that. The water must pour in very gently and something about the geology (very rocky, poorly developed soils?) must prevent it from silting up.

Amazing sift, should be #1. Any time I see some new phenomena that I didn't know the Earth could produce I'll sift it very enthusiastically

He was driving in SCUBA gear.

^What's wrong with scuba-diving?!

Surf at the front steps of the Capitol... Makes me wonder how much of the east coast would become scuba-divers if that were to happen.

Your welcome...:D Thanks for the scuba gear and the truck!

"Wow, not good SCUBA diving here, the water is so muddy! But hey I found this sorta plug thingy at the bottom! Cool! Wait. WAAAAAArrrrrrgglglglgllg..."

If I could breathe in LA without the need of a scuba suit, I'd totally be there.

You wanna front what?
Jump up and get bucked
If you're feeling lucky duck
Then press your luck
I snatch fake gangsta MC's and make em faggot flambe
Your nine spray my mind spray
Malignant mist steadily pumps the funk
The results you're a gang stuffed in a car trunk
You couldn't come to the jungles of the East poppin that game
You won't survive get live catchin wreck is our thing
I don't gang bang or shoot out bang bang
The relentless lyrics the only dope I slang
I'm a true master you can check my credentials
Cuz I choose to use my infinite potentials
Got a freaky, freaky, freaky-freaky flow
Control the mic like fidel castro locked cuba
So deep that you can scuba dive/my jive
Origin is unknown like the Jubas
I've accumulated honies all across the map
Cuz I'd rather bust a nut then bust a cap in
Ya back in fact my rap snaps ya sacroilliac
I'm the mack so i don't need to tote a Mac
My attack is purely mental and its nature's not hate
It's meant to wake ya up out of ya brainwashed state
Stagnate nonsense but if you persist
You'll get ya snotbox bust you press up on this
I flip hoes dip none of the real niggas slip
You don't know enough math to count the mics that I ripped
Keep the Dirty Rotten Scoundrel as his verbal weapons spit

Real rough and rugged, shine like a gold nugget
Every time i pick up the microphone i drug it
Unplug it on chumps with the gangsta babble
Leave your nines at home and bring your skills to the battle
You're rattlin' on and on and ain't sayin nothing
That's why you got snuffed when you bump heads with Dirty Rotten
Have you forgotten, i'll tap you [jaw]
I also kick like kung fu flicks by run run shaw
Made frauds bleed every time I g'd
Cuz i've perfected my drunken style like sam seed
Pseudo psychos i play like Michael
Jackson when i'm bustin ass and breakin backs
Inhale the putrified aroma
Breathe too deep and you'll wind up coma-
tose the king i'm hard like a fifth of vodka
And bring your clique cuz i'm a hard rock knocka
I gotcha, out on a limb i'm about to push you off the brink
Let you draw your craw but you burnin' shot breaks
When the East is in the house you should come equipped

Fly like a jet sting like a hornet
Knuckleheads get live and set it off if you want it
Dirty rotten scoundrels is crushin fools no joke
With styles more fatal than second hand smoke
Don't provoke the wrath of this rhyme inventor
Cuz I blow up spots like the world trade center
Come with the super trooper on his assault mission
The tech's technique cuz he's a technician
Wishin he'll go away won't help the weapons stop
The skills are shot cuz any idiot can let off a glock
Hard rock smellin the clutch of this untoucha
You claim you got beef on the streets so whatcha
Gonna do when real niggaz roll up on you
And you don't got your crew
Pull your glock but you don't got the heart
You was webbed straight from the start
Bought a tool and didn't learn how to use it
Got lost in Brooklyn so you had to lose it
Just for frontin you got that ass waxed

I don't like flying much either, also for pressure change reasons (I have to do the scuba diving ear adjustments, where you hold your nose and blow...)

I think that you're right. Read this guy's account:
http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=448717

Here's a guy who is marathon fit, and has trained in the past for free-diving, which is to say, diving as deeply as possible without SCUBA gear.

He waterboarded himself and got MUCH further than Hitchens, but once he got to the stage with the plastic wrap, it was game over, instantly. Unconditional, total surrender.

>> ^Trancecoach:
I wonder if Hitchens exercised regularly, if he'd be better able to manage the experience. That is, if a person is physically fit, would that increase their tolerance of the procedure? Regardless, this practice appears to be powerful enough to break anyone's will, regardless of their stamina or fitness.
