That is one of the largest problems when gathering information that myself 
and others have come up with. There is no law stating someone has to give out 
all the exact facts. We will publish all the TRUE facts, not to down grade a 
diver, but to point out the main causes of the accident. Hopefully we all can 
learn, or show others for a fact that some types of diving (deep air) is 
incorrect and is still killing today.

Once you point out these findings its up to the diver(s) and more importantly 
the training agencies to form their standards and procedures to prevent 
accidents from happening.  

Maybe we sould send out (press releases) to these training agencies on the 
data we discover. Maybe this will make them react????
