In 2001 the logo (shown lower right) was slightly altered to include the wording around the outside edge, was created and continues to be used as a sign of recognition by representatives of the M.S.F.A. while conducting the official business of the Association. The description of the logo was supplied by Past President Peter Paul Lochary and Mrs. Jeannie Hare (widow of Past President Herman B. Hare.)

  • Risuscitando I Morti
    Risuscitando i morti Nella parte più profonda della più grande grotta subacquea del mondo, tra le immersioni più profonde di quasi chiunque fosse mai andato, Dave Shaw ha trovato il corpo di un giovane che era scomparso dieci anni prima Cosa è successo dopo, quando Shaw ha promesso di tornare a recuperarlo, è quasi incredibile, se non credi ai fantasmi. Dieci minuti dopo la sua entrata in acqua Dave Shaw ha iniziato a cercare il fondo. da tutti i lati ha diretto la sua fonte luminosa verso il basso, sperando di intercettare roccia o fango. Shaw, di 50 anni, australiano, è in un mondo alieno, più di 260 metri sotto la vasca di ingresso che segna l’accesso al Hole Bushman, una dolina remota nella provincia del Capo settentrionale del Sud Africa, la più profonda d'acqua della zona e la terza grotta per profondità che l'uomo conosca. Shaw ha indossato la sua muta stagna in neoprene nerorebreather a circuito chiuso, che, a differenza dei tradizionali circuiti aperti, garantisce il riciclo del gas respirato attraveso l’eliminazione del biossido di carbonio esalato aggiungendo ossigeno. Shaw era appena in grado di muoversi ma in acqua, scendendo lungo la sagola che lo guida dall'ingresso verso il basso, era leggero e grazioso, una creatura nera con solo un lampo di pelle dietro la sua maschera, scivolando verso il basso senza l'emissione di una singola bolla a perturbare l'etereo silenzio. Solo due subacquei sono scesi a quelle profondità prima di lui. Uno di loro, un sudafricano di nome Nuno Gomes, scese nel 1996 in circuito aperto fino a 282 metri egli ricercava un record e quando ha toccato il fondo è ritornato immediatamente in superficie.
