  No bubbles, you can only get no bubbles with closed circuit.  Try and get
close to a hammerhead with open circuit and you turn blue in the face
holding your breath, with a rebreather you can swim with them.  This is one
of the best reasons to own a rebreather, I agree that cave diving is not.
I'm gonna try that real soon with WKPP recommendations and JJ but it sure is
hard to beat a rebreather for observing wildlife.
