::grin::  I'm one of the exceptions too - I'll always dive with a buddy.  
Note, hopwever, that I won't COUNT on a buddy in case of a problem.  
Sure, there are circumstances where a buddy can be a liability.  There 
are circumstances where a second regulator is a liability as well.  
Perhaps, then, we should leave off a second regulator (after all, if 
we're not diving with a buddy, then we don't need to share air, right?)  
Yes, that's a silly statement, but it's intended to make some people 
think a moment.

It is hard to disagree with a pro-survival decision,
     It is even harder to engage in prolonged arguments
          with someone who consistently makes anti-survival decisions.
