You're wrong, but, because you're new, I forgive you.

>I wonder if you would be so mean to each other face to face.  

A puzzling question. Of course. Do you say things on here that you 
wouldn't in person?

>I joined techdiver to learn about tech diving and also to tell people about 
my own
>experiences.  

Your cotton is not appropriately arranged for this purpose, so I conclude 
that either you are lying, or massively confused.

>If this is not what techdiver is all about please let me know so I can 
unsubscribe.  

It's not, go away.

>Perhaps I can learn more about technical diving from rec.scuba. 

There are probably many things you can learn from rec.scuba.

>Now it seems that all that is left is the flaming. 

Shut up, look harder.

>Why not put all our knowledge to work and help each other to learn and
>improve our wonderful sport?  

We are. You're not. Sniveling doesn't count.

>Spreading knowledge is the only way to make the sport safer and better.  

No, that's not true, but it does reveal a lot about you. Particularly 
about your amazing, all encompassing view of the way the world works.

The epidermally challenged spend a great deal of time in pain here.

You may wish to convince yourself that you're better off without us, and 
leave.

Or just leave, if you want.
