Yes, people make mistakes. That's why they always need to have a dive buddy - one who understands all that that term implies - so that the mistakes you make don't kill you.

Well, I sincerely hope your good fortune holds - because that's all it's been. ---Captain Steve Bielenda <wahoo2001@er*.co*> wrote: > > Why does some one have to be incredibly stupid if you make mistakes, how > many have you made, if you havent made any mistakes your not doing anything > life is a learning curve > catain steve beilenda > -----Original Message----- > From: Barbara Peterson <nocturne_cvs@ya*.co*> > To: jammer@oz*.ne* <jammer@oz*.ne*>; techdiver@aquanaut.com > <techdiver@aquanaut.com>; cavers@ge*.co* <cavers@ge*.co*> > Date: Sunday, May 31, 1998 8:17 PM > Subject: Re: Wings > > > >In today's litigious society, where a bartender can be sued for > >selling someone a drink - who then goes out and kills someone else, or > >handgun makers can be sued when one of their guns is used to kill > >someone, it's nice to know that in the dive community, an incredibly > >stupid person can go diving without a buddy - by tacit consent of the > >dive boat, and if he does end up disappearing, his family isn't going > >to sue the diveboat for negligence in allowing the diver to make his > >own stupid mistakes.
