No, I never suggested any of those things. I can't for the life of me imagine why you think I did.
That was the point Bob, and I noted this right there. You're the one exaggerating what I said, but you can't see that. Here let me quote what I posted and embolden the salient part. Perhaps you'll read it this time.
See? These semi-rhetorical questions that try to cast the other party in an unflattering light are pretty bogus. Of course, you never suggested any of those things, just like I wouldn't suggest that a diver use a piece of equipment that they don't understand. It's misleading and relies on fear mongering.
This is a board with special rules. If you can't discuss things without resorting to that tactic,
Please listen to your own advice, Bob.
The "you're gonna die" inference is utter BS
Is it? Didn't you just post this?
and an algorithm that can easily get them in trouble if they misprogram it?
"
easily get them in trouble?" How? What kind of trouble? What are the possible outcomes? Without any examples of divers actually getting in trouble by using the Perdix, you're raising the specter that they could 'easily' be injured and possibly die. FWIW, misprogramming any PDC can "easily get them in trouble". Why is the Perdix any different in this regard?
Pete ... please, just stop responding to my posts. You seem to have a hard time having a conversation without making it personal.
Bob. Bob. Bob. You responded to me first. It's a two-way street. You made it personal when you suggested that I said something I didn't. Of course, you won't see your own mistakes... you just want to blame me all the time. I'm not the one getting butthurt with a simple dialog. I haven't called you a name. I haven't discussed your lineage in any form. I've simply disagreed with you and all of a sudden you claim that I'm making things "personal".
Disagreeing with someone isn't making things "personal". That's all in your mind and not my intent. You resort to this argument almost everytime we disagree on something. You tell me not to respond to you anymore but then you respond to me. It's tiresome and misrepresents me and my motives. You're taking constructive dialog in a way it was never intended to be taken. I'm not making it personal as much as you're simply taking it that way.
Disagreeing with someone isn't making it personal. I'm not your enemy and respect you for the most part. We actually agree more than we disagree. Please learn to accept disagreements without attaching nefarious intent to them.
Please! It would be a very boring place if we had to agree with each other all the time. Also, don't blame me for responding to you after you respond to me. That's just not fair.
