This is great! We made it simple enough that it baffled a lawyer!

Would I get one because I think that every diver needs a SMB and DAN insurance...? :lol2:

me too
wow, this place run by Christians, Jews and Agnostics is very tolerant and accomodating. (Hmm..Orans does have that cool nativity scene...my only clue.) He must be doing a great job, cause he is impossible to profile!
Don, you definetly qualify as a POV troll regarding DAN and women is bikinis unless they are on alternative websites. But..I like SMB and the hat, so we will let that slide.

I have a small issue with "openly challenges authority" not being more carefully defined. Understand the need, but have seen some authority exercised on the board that needed challenging. (not often, but it has happened) Probably best done with a PM, but sometimes the community needs to be able to voice its displeasure with authority in a resonable and rational way without the risk of being banned for displeasing the PTB. On the other hand the PTB need to be able to control egregious behaviour.
Perhaps "openly and offensively challenges authority"

Openly meaning trying to demean us and/or our authority in the open forums. If you have a problem with moderation take it to PMs with the mod in question or post an inquiry in site support. If you are getting nowhere with that, contact me via PM or abuse!ScubaBoard.com.

Understand that is the intention, but that is not what "openly" means. A simple statement in the forums that I don't like that SB staff closed a particular thread and asking for input/discussion from others could be construed as "openly challenges authority". Anyway not an arguement, just a point - I personally have had only one issue, a PM was sent and the issue disappeared shortly thereafter as I gather I was not alone in registering a complaint.
