Re: What Happenned to Marcus?
He was and is just another example of "tolerance" crowd. You know, the "hate has no home here" group.

We all die and face God some day. Personally, I pray for God's mercy for Seatux just as I have for Marcus. Though to be honest, I will miss Marcus a lot more. Life is too short to hate anyone but traitors. It's also uncertain. There are no guarantees that good ol Seatux won't get to gloat over my carcass, too.

Re: What Happenned to Marcus?
Yes, Mark Franey aka marcus did pass away recently. He and I were good dive buddies 20-something years ago back when spearboard was in its infancy...maybe 2003 or so and participated in the inaugural spearboard open, several st pete open tournaments etc. He did have some demons and at times made it difficult to tolerate him, but he had a heart of gold. I lost contact with him probably 15 years ago. In June I got a phone call from a mutual friend that used to work with him and is still in St Pete area letting me know he had passed. Marcus died way too young as a very sick man and will be missed regardless of anything.
