    The world is not fair or level and there is no reason to treat everyone the same. Qualifying who to listen to is an important process. Some people perform at a higher level and/or are held accountable to a more exacting standard. I've found that gue instructors are those people.

    Consider for a moment the constant deep air posts, they illustrate foolish actions devoid of current diving information and science...there is good reason to be "mean" in response.

    Wow -- this thread no longer even REMOTELY pertains to the original post, or to DIR diving at all. Please notice in which forum this was put; it has a very specific and limited focus.

    Off topic, snarky and the posts replying to them have been culled.

    Please exercise better discretion in the future.
