Subject: Re: Dry Suit Diving..Gooberville...
This is very frustrating, but I will be persistent because it is the right
thing to
do.  Jeremy,  do it the right/same way under all conditions. If you cannot use
your
method with all dive types, why use it at all?  You are increasing complexity by
changing styles, methods, etc. for each type of dive.  One for 'light duty', one
for 'heavy duty', one for 'extreme heavy duty', one for 'howdy duty', etc., and
this is clearly a way to confuse yourself and students down the road.  I will
keep
on this for the sake of safety-------Jason
