As promised, the International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame inducted the class of 2007 into its hallowed halls this past weekend. Sadly, I wasn't able to make it to Grand Cayman to cover the event, but apparently it went off without a hitch. Nobody threw drinks. Nobody caused a scene and demanded a refund. No food fights broke out. Rather, the event -- emceed by the great Stan Waterman (himself inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2000) -- was serene, pleasant, and polite. Of course, the Hall of Fame is still only a virtual Hall and has no actual brick-and-mortar facade...yet. During the induction ceremony, however, Minister Charles E. Clifford announced that, "The Ministry and Department of Tourism will work with the board to make the Hall of Fame vision a reality." Can't wait to visit!
