Can girls hold their breath underwater longer than boys?

I'm doing some research for an upcoming project. THXS.


P.S. I'm in for Moab! Can't wait! most likely I'll be going solo by then.

I don't know the whole story, or even part of it, since I've only been a member since June, 06. This scenario is something that obviously happened awhile back. I haven't commented on any of these 'AlecW' threads ... but, now I'm thoroughly disgusted. Are you the Alex who had this tragedy happen? Is this story even true? If it is .. I think the dad in question must be either distraught beyond words after such an accident, or, knows he has a lifetime of guilt feelings ahead of him. Either way, he has to live with himself. But, if THIS post was started by the real dad .. then I CANNOT tell you how disgusting you are to make such lighthearted jokes about something so tragic. We have a son and to think of you posting this sick post ... makes us sick to our stomach. Have a great life.
