(Michael Kane wrote) What has been troubling me about these discussions is the cavalier attitudes about the rights of a diver to kill themselves, and more often that not, it's the *it can't happen to me because I'm experienced * attitude
While that's certainly been an attitude expressed repeatedly on rec.scuba, I don't recall reading it from anyone here and, if my recollection is correct (and I'm happy to stand corrected if someone would point that out), it may be unfair to tar these posters with the brush of ignornace that so often accompanies posts on rec.scuba.
