Knowledge is power, information gives us strenght.
I have always felt that diving accidents should be investigated, and the results published with the widest amount of disbursement, ie web pages, dive magazines, dive shops. If done with proper training, equipment that is in proper working order, using the right equipment for the conditions of the current dive, this is a very safe sport. Something that has bothered me is when you hear that a experienced diver has had a accident, and then find out that they had only 20 or 50 dives, well it just makes me wonder who decides what a experienced diver is.
