Given the facts I laid out a bit further down in "220 psi . . . maybe not", I'm curious to know - whether you're a DM or a diver - how you'd handle the situation or expect to be dealt with if it was you that ran out of air. (Really two different questions, but what the hell.)
If you answer it from a perspective of how you'd deal with it as a DM, pretend it's not a Reef Seekers trip so you're not obligated to follow our out-of-air policy.
If you answer from the perspective of a diver who runs out of air, pretend it IS our trip and you were aware of our out-of-air policy as outlined in our briefing.
Just curuious to see what the thoughts are. There are no right or wrong answers to this.
