So, you don't believe in safety, having fun and enjoying life?
Cute. But not effective.

I thought that's what I did. Was there a point here?
As for what I meant by 'controlling' it, what I meant was (of course) controlling it in the same way we control other things; with our best intentions. I.E. we don't fill someone's tank if we don't believe they're certified. Nothing 'chilling' about it.
OK?

Control is a pretty heavy word. Some countries like to control what their people do and say.
How do you suggest that an agency "control" it's past students? Take PADI for example. Some of it's past students have nothing better to do than bash anyone and anything DIR. How should they control those folks?
I'm a member of GUE and I have _no_ idea what you are saying to do about DIR commandos.doole once bubbled... As for 'controlling' past students who bash DIR, I really couldn't care less.
I do conceed that the word 'control' was ill-chosen.
The other 90% knew what I meant perfectly well, however.

I'm glad a few of you guys aren't spokemen for anyone other than DIR-FA or GUE. THANK..............GOD. You make it look bad.
It's a good thing there are people like scubajay, boomx, and lal that can make DIR look good without bashing.

Bashing? Where?
Only responding to your outright hatred of DIR and GUE. It shows EVERYWHERE in your posts.
By the way, it's Seajay, not scubajay.

Yeah, seajay not scubajay. Sorry for the confusion it apparently caused. My bad. You okay?
So you are telling me you haven't bashed folks who don't believe in the 7' primary? That's my problem. And the 10% of course. Not with DIR-FA
Keep up the good work. I'll try to help out when I can.
Best Wishes

My Lions have been dead for 45 years. I've gotten over it.
Our discussion over donating the primary had to do with very specific issues. Donating the primary is a very well thought out skill. Your reasons for not doing it were not believable, ie. having the reg out of your mouth for a second was dangerous.
I wasn't bashing anything not DIR. I was giving a very good reason why your method was not optimal.
I don't know what you mean by the 10 percent. It's a number pulled out of the air by someone.
When I want your help, I'll ask for it. In the meantime, I'll call BS when I see it.
I have a suggestion for you. Why don't you try and post something that doesn't have to do with DIR, seeing that you hate it so much?
