tecdiver opined: ". . . but someone that bans Nitrox I will take with less than a grai of salt."
Interesting illogic.
Now, I could see that if you disagreed with my OPINION on nitrox you'd disagree with my OPINION on something else, given that my OPINIONS would all stem from a value system I hold to be true.
But to dismiss multiple statements of FACT (whose legitimacy can be so relatively easily ascertained) because you disgaree with my OPINION on something else, now that's a leap of illogic thateludes me.
It would be like me saying, "The sun rises in the east each day," and you saying, "I take that statemnent with a grain of salt given your position on nitrox."
And just to be clear, our position on nitrox (which seems to be always twisted by those who try to denigrate it - I doubt you truly understand it) is simply a business decision for Reef Seekers and nothing more. It doesn't affect you if you don't do business with us.
My so-called "ban" on nitrox doesn't prevent you from diving nitrox any more than my "ban" on stupidity prevents you from making idiotic posts that defy logic.
