"Just be realistic and don't glorify unsafe dive practices."
It seems that some are upset that this newsgroup isn't politically correct enough for them. Like the virgin ears of newbies will be corrupted if they hear certain things. Give me a break, get real. Divers hunt, kill fish and eat lobsters some hunt brass, others hunt with a camera, many of these enjoy doing so solo or relaxed loose buddy systems. Eventually the new diver will see the truth anyway.
Dive anyway you like and do so safely but don't condemn others for diving the way they enjoy. Prehaps Chris should add polically incorrect to the free and open at the top of page.
