    Yep. and its not just there, or on wrecks. we just had a spearfisher stick a very big, very protected animal. Not only did he bring it on board, but the Capt just told him to throw it back. stupidity running rampant, and it is just hard to sit back and not point out sometimes.

    It doesn't occur to you that the piece of junk they worked very hard for, at great risk to their personal wellbeing, isn't theirs to steal? or that doesnt matter because it is junk, and only one out of every three hundred divers might see it... or did I miss something. :huh:

    But that is at least some of the point. People keep doing it, at least on charted vessels, because the CAPT who shoulda ripped him a new one, and called it in, lets him get away with it. Now what do the other paying customers get from this behavior? negative reinforcement. I saw this guy do this...

    I personally think that WAY too many people are WAY too quik to let persons who are directly responsible for good stewardship get off WAY too easy because they made a mistake. But maybe Im just a harsh opinionated azz who wants to be able to see a decent shape wreck look somewhat similar when...

    Bravo! Some people seem to be lacking some basic common sense. Just because something happens where you are does not make it acceptable. The laws apply everywhere and are in place for a reason. I have seen many people take many things, and while I can be quite irratated about it, there is...

    Digital manipulations

    not the way I expected the thread to run when I read the OP intro. One of the 'raging conversations' running in some of the sports photo arenas is more to the tune of: 'with at the enhancements, photogs are relying on a computer program to correct or digitally enhance shots, whereas with films...

    Since we're in the donating mood

    Isn't that how all of us learnt to hunt, my dad taught me about hunting when I was a wee-man... the most important lessons: never kill what you cant eat or use, and use as much of the animal as possible, do not waste...:D

    Well Wishes for Kimber (TekDiveGirl)

    I think I'll agree with ScubaPolly here. I don't think that therapist knows how determined Kimber is...yeah the PT and OT will really be motivated because she is, but Rehab is quite a bit different than outpatient PT where you go for a knee injury. There is so much frusturation, relearning tasks...

    Shadow Divers – Exposed U 869

    Gary Gentile has been outspoken for quite some time. No one debates his status as a diver. But why does he have to be a sore loser. You've been flamed and fired off boats and proven to be an exaggerator and presenting incidents in a manner that makes you look good and everyone else bad many...

    Yeah, those darn nuisances, kids... Well here they are telling us they don't want us to get knocked over by a wave and land on some poor tourist. Darn, they must have seen me aiming for those Kansas familys, just trying to give them something to start the conversation about the first time they...

    Too dangerous

    Ah, deja vu all over again... I just went thru this just getting OW cert... I made sure to 'accidently' run into my projected instructor and a couple other divers at a resturant. The all the questions were answered by professionals and they all managed to defuse the safety questions without me...

    Lifeguard suggestion for entry points

    I am just wondering if lifeguards at your local public beach dive destination regulated where you should enter? Here is sunny San Diego we have a great place to shore dive known as La Jolla Shores. There is a really nice canyon just offshore with lots of distinct spots to dive spread over a...
