Airbag light went off. Searched forums and it is a common issue with the Corvette (and other GM vehicles, apparently). Used a zip tie to tighten connector to fix the problem but the vehicles should be recalled to fix the connectors under the seats.
As I, "the owner", was driving home from work, I received the air bag warning light on the dash board cluster and moved the vehicle to the far right hand lane and slowed down, after about 15 mins the warning light went away, this happened a few times during the week untill I could have the car looked at by my tech. When I talked with my tech, he said that there were no codes and he recommend that instead of having the passenger seat in the full back position that I should move it forward a little, that way the air bag module wires would not be stressed. After moving the passenger seat forward about an inch or so the air bag warning light has not come back since, current mileage on vehicle is 164,327.
Airbag light came, checked connectors under both driver side and passenger side seats and used a zip-tie to ensure the connectors were tight. Afterwards, the airbag light went off, but the problem has returned.
Air bag light comes on intermittently. Problem seems to be related to air bag connector beneath drivers seat. Moving the seat position will cause the warning lamp to come on or turn off. I'm afraid that one day I'm going to need my air bag and it's not going to deploy. It appears, from complaints on an Corvette owners forum, to be a very common issue with the C6 Corvette and the manufacturer doesn't seem to be addressing it.

I tightened the connectors with wire ties which made the problem less likely, however the problem still on occasion occurs.
