MHK, you write:
I thought it was funny ( and Frank this isn't a flame ) that Frank Farmer posted in a different thread that you can teach old dogs new tricks, but I find it the hardest to discuss with divers that have been diving solo for years and years that they shouldn't do it. They seem to be the hardest, and least willing, to discuss this with.
Again: I have never in 36 years of active diving, world-wide, dove totally solo. I dive independently with other groups of divers, primarily on shipwrecks. I'm as anti totally solo diving as you and the rest of the threads are. Interesting that none of you have commented on independent diving, nor the black cloud of potential litigation that hangs over every buddy diving team.
