"When the gates are all down and the signals are flashing the whistle is screaming in vain; and you stay on the tracks ignoring the facts well you can't blame the wreck on the train." Don McLean
I read your tag line and it reminded me of a local story here in the Greenville, SC area where an officer made a lady who pulled her car on the tracks get out just before a train hit it at 70 miles per hour.
FoxCarolina - Home the uncut video from the cops car can be seen here.
I guess if you applied that to scuba is that if you break the big rules there are big prices to pay and like trains, the water is not forgiving of your mistakes. And sometimes we really really need a buddy to pull us out of danger!
