Hi.

First of all, I apologize for my awful english, so please forgive me if i'm wrong in writing this forum.

I like very much this "Dork Dive Philosophy": I've read the "Eleven Laws of Dork Diving", and they fit fine with my idea of diving. Well, my nick (Boa Gialla = Yellow Buoy) is a sort of confirmation of this "status".

In my experience, in Mediterranean and Red Sea, the greatest part of divers are dork divers, i.e. people who share this view, who know how much is important to laugh, about themselves too.

Isn't the same in USA?

Thank you.
Ciao,
A.

Diving in Italy ... it's a very large question. I'd rather answer referring to this article written by Claudio Di Manao, a famous guide in the Red Sea, about Italian divers.

Ciao

P.S. Don't believe Di Manao: we can be even worse

Welcome to our little corner of the dork world, Boa...you'll find that being a dork diver is something that all OTHER divers secretly aspire to.

Whether they know it or not.

Thank you, but i need about 900% more time to write something.
And the real problem is that i miss a lot of meanings out of your posts, as you write messages in the "normal" spoken english; and I know only this learned-at-school english. So i feel myself an idiot, and i don't like it.

I do hope you understand what i wrote. Unfortunately in Italy the study of the english is not as good as in other european country.

I certainly understand that. Last winter, I flew to Fukuoka, Japan, to visit J. I've been literate and well-spoken for longer than I can remember, so finding myself illiterate and incomprehensible was unsettling.

(Of course, it was a very small price to pay for being able to spend a couple weeks with J. for the first time since she went to Japan to teach English. :biggrin
