It will be the right, and the legacy, of the obese, the foolish, the lazy, and to those too incompetent to make it in the more elite agencies. And anyone, no mater how obese, no mater how lazy, no matter how many drugs they do, will have the ability to get certified by these agencies. I'm hoping that in a year from now, there will be a couple of "better choices", which smarter, better divers, can make, in choosing who will train them. Regards, Dan Volker >> Are you saying that ALL IANTD instructors teach better than ALL TDI instructors?? Or does the quality of the program boil down to the instructor and what he teaches?? Are all NAUI instructors better than all PADI instructors?? Bashing any of the agencies at this point does no good. We need to identify what Instructors do a good job, regardless of agency affiliation, and which ones should go back and learn to dive before they take responsibilty for the training of others.
