I think the problem most have is the fact that in all the newspaper and TV interviews he has never admitted that this was in large part his own doing. Yes, the DM screwed the pooch big time, but Dan should have never been there in the first place, let alone lose sight of the rigs. Fifteen minutes is a long time underwater to search for your buddies before surfacing. Also, instead of swimming toward the Sundiver when he saw it, or at least the rigs, he chose to drift and wait for the boat to return for him.
