"The Ranger told me that the typical case (actually, he said always, but he was pretty shook up) involves solo diving and not dropping weights. Remember that ab divers are not necessarily scuba divers and that many of them have no training..."
If this is true, having a buddy is a non-issue. Certainly no indictment of trained, experienced, self-reliant solo diving.
