what you say and try it out; and evaluate it for themselves, under their

There was a just a diver on here a little while back who said something 
like he was thinking about a cave
diving class to get ready for some ice diving. Where do you think he got 
that idea? Cave diving solutions are
not the solutions to every situation in diving.
