It is good that you actually showed up to help but of course you missed
the point of what is cave diving.  Large scale cave diving requires many
differing tasks by the principle players and by the support people.  In
observing the process before you, you obviously confused your role and
that of the key players who were taking the risks.  Carrying a few tanks
does not immediately qualify you for key player role and you should also
take notice that if folks sometimes seem puffed up about what they are
doing then it may be based on the pride of accomplishment.  Just what was
the last thing you did well underwater and in a cave?
