To further your abysmal knowledge of diving history:
"Dick Rutkowski formed the International Association of Nitrox Divers (IAND) in 1985 to teach nitrox to sport divers. In 1992 the name was changed to the International Association of Nitrox and Technical Divers (IANTD). The T was added when the European Association of Technical Divers merged with IAND. Prior to founding IAND, Dick Rutkowski worked for Dr Wells and was director of the diver training at NOAA. This was the first organisation to offer international training to recreational scuba divers."
Stop bashing AA and do some serious research into your ignorance.
