I know that post has been locked but there are a few things that need to be set straight do to the incorrect information that has been posted there.
I will mostly be responding to the lies and just plain stupidity that has been written so read carefully and try to follow the cut & pasting. If you don’t understand what I am saying then this wasn’t really directed at you.

…just minutes before I was to ride up to release Ela's ashes into that desert sunset sky…
…Ela's ash dive was cancelled…
------------------------------------------------------
I guess as time has passed you have forgotten that Ela’s ash dive wasn’t going to happen do to high winds. No load had left the ground since early that morning.
-------------------------------------------------------
…my effort to remove myself from an unresolvable situation.
-------------------------------------------------------
Remove yourself from the situation, are you kidding? All you have done since Ela died is make everything a situation. You have continuously bad mouthed everyone who was around her when she was alive. Being an ass hole to the people from her life will not make this easier. What are you going to do next time someone burns in? It happens more than anyone wants it to, I don’t know a skydiver who hasn’t lost someone. So why are you such a problem? What makes you so different? Since Ela’s death it hasn’t been about Ela. It has only been about you and how much you hurt. Oh Boo Hoo!
I do have a question. As I read over your long, fucking boring story to pull pieces out, I wonder… Why the fuck did you write all this on here in the first place? You could have stuck to skydiving but instead you keep writing about all your feelings and how you weren’t really there over the next week, and blah, blah. I think you need a diary or something, maybe take up poetry. But from now on why don’t you keep your sad song to yourself!
However, the fact that you did this gives me a little something to play on.

…And get this, while i was off near the office trying to find some common ground with DZO and S&TA my friend was over with the buckeye dzrats drinkin beer.

This is my favorite part!!! I must note that these are the same people you hung out with every Saturday night. The same people who taught you and Ela to skydive. So, at what point did you become better than them? It would be interesting to know, now that someone is dead, why you suddenly became FUCKING GOD???
I suppose for now I will leave it here. Not that I don’t have a ton more lies I could point out, but I think people will read this much and know to take everything PDS says with a grain of salt. The DZ where this incident happened is a great dropzone filled with many awesome people!
I have lost skydivers from other dropzones and the last thing on my mind was to blame everyone who cared about me and the lost jumpers. Everyone deals with death in their own way, this was obviously his way. I thought someone should point out some of the crazyness that was said. I do have faith in people who read things posted on here, faith that you don’t believe everything you read.
Jumpers die all the time, the bottom line is if you don’t pull, you don’t live!
