Roger- What, exactly, claims are you referring to? If I made any claims, I don't recall doing so. Badmouthing, yes, slander, possibly, but claims? I have seen DAN data and they specifically exclude training agency. They don't want to step on any toes and especially don't want to get sued. The only resource I could think of would be a Lexas/Nexas search and I don't have that kind of money. Even then it is rare when the agency is mentioned. Look at all the clippings about the recent massacre down in WPB. Not once is IANDT mentioned except on this list. I have all the facts I need. I can go down to my local dive center, pickup and cheezy DEEP AIR TRAINING course guide from TDI and there it is in black and white. Due to pressure I believe created on this list, IANDT and PSI have officially changed their polocies regarding deepair, TDI being the loan holdout. Why are they the loan holdout? Because of a number of pending lawsuits by various parties are preventing TDI from changing horses in mid-stream. Lets just say it would look bad. This list, Roger, this list is a powerful tool for spreading the word that you don't have to do Deepair to find diving nirvana. By saying the things that I and many other do about TDI will keep people from going to them and avoiding deepair in general.
