Hi WhoamI?
I was reading the edited article on scubadiving, and I thought it looked very good!!! I was only wondering about one thing, basically, which was the part about landmines... I really do not believe there are any landmines along the coastline, since the croats want the tourist industry back (and it's slowly coming along again), and this areas would almost for sure, if they were ever affected at all, been cleared already.... I was only thinking that it might sound a bit more scary than Croatia really is... Cause it really is a nice country!!! Maybe we could try to modify it a bit... If you want to, and I have the time, I can also contact some friends of mine from Zagreb and ask about where the mines and the conflict areas were, where the mines originally would have been placed, before we put it for editing... Or is it too late already??
Anyway, except for this, the edited article looked really good, and I have really nothing else to question about!!! Thanks for a really nice job on my article!!!!

I've returned it now - but fair point. I /did/ say 'according to the US State Dept.' or something, which makes it sound a little paranoid as it is. We'll see what the Editors think - I'll drop'em a line.

Thanks!!!! I'll check in on the h2g2 every day or so, to check if you have had an answer from them.... Sometimes I feel like what the US State Department might be a bit overcautious about things.....

Well, it was written so the reader could take it 2 ways, wither listen to the department, or laugh at how cautious they are being, and buy an armour-plated towel just in case...
