Meanigfull - I believe so.
Your definition of "mature" - I don't believe so.  This is not intended as
a negative reply, but more as a reality check.  You need to keep in mind
that the people who are "DOING" this kind of diving don't usually have the
kind of temperament that it takes for laid back living room discussions.  My 
recommendation would be to get use to hottttly debated yelling and screaming.
Or get off before your blood pressure rises to the point that you too 
start pissing and moaning about things that others find OK.  I also find
some of the fighting to be a bit much at times, but thats also what makes
these people who they are and capable of doing what they do.

Have Fun,

Scooter Sellers
