This PADI ad was printed in the May issue of Sport Diver. The first part of it says something to the effect of getting scared under water and peeing your wetsuit, then it says:
Nothing gets the adrenaline flowing like an undersea adventure. There is no easier way than with the PADI Adventures in Diving program. IN ONLY ONE DAY, you can swim away with an Adventure Diver certification. If you are searching for more, get back in the water and go home with an Advanced Open Water card (typically two days).
New students don't know the difference, but I don't understand why PADI instructors are loyal to such an organization.
