I'm all for freedom ad personal responsiblity, but I've been on many trips where divers who obviously lack the fitness, stamina or aquatic skills for the conditions at hand were permitted to endanger themselves without comment or intervention form the experienced divers on board. Sure we should allow divers to make their own decisions, but at the same time we should not fail to tactfully advise, instruct and advocate safety at every turn.
