Like I said no disrespect - It's the end of your post I was referring to. Life is short - Break the rules - Kiss slow ect I was referring to. I always wonder if I'm going to make it back. Don't you? It why I train - redundancy- right. With over 20,000 posts a novice might get the Idea that you know what you are talking about and you sound like you do. But you end all your posts with Break all the rules. Is that a keyboard thing? Practice what you preach Brother of the water.Peace and safe diving.
I have to respond to Grateful Diver - life is short - break the rule? - I believe training is essential in scuba - how much depends on the person. To tell a novice that they need more time under water and end your lecture with your Quote baffles me. No disrespect but you have enough dives to have encountered a few emergencies so do you break the rules? I dive solo because I like it and although Death enters my mind it is not a concern - diving and enjoyment out rule it all. Everybody wants to go to Heaven but nobody wants to die!! Peace fellow divers
The most dangerous thing you can take in the water with you is a buddy.
Ok - Grateful one - I wonder but I don't worry. I plan my dive - I dive my plan - Period. I'm kind of an old guy and I wonder if I'm going to wake up in the morning but I don't worry about it - I sleep well. You still haven't answered the question - Do you think it's a good idea to lecture a novice on solo diving and end your post with "Break all the rules". I don't need to read your opinion on my ability - I'm quite confident in myself. I'm just waiting for your answer to the question.
Agree - ScottyJoe, for someone that means "no disrespect", you're doing a dang fine job of demonstrating just that, and with probably the most widely respected man on this forum.
Go find someone else' life philosophy to argue with.
I could argue with your's Jax ... except that I agree with it.
... besides ... I'm too distracted by your avatar ...
