dan -
i'll bet i can go back 30 years & find articles in "skin Diver" stating the
same thing about Padi instructors. None of them would EVER go against the
standards.
are you really so smug that you think that all the people that practice a
particular technique (in this case DIR) cannot possibly DIW (do it wrong).
there will always be someone who doesn't follow directions well.

it has happened in every educational agency - after the initial diehard
followers train more & they train more & so on ---sooner or later you will
have a similar situation as TDI_IANDI & any other alphabetic agency you can
make up.

this is not a put down  of a system Only A realization of the realities of
life.

 Capt Dale,
 The guy who was supposed to be a DIR instructor needs to be named----none of
 us give or gear up new open water students with DIR configured doubles and
 let them go----its just not within DIR.
 
 I have no doubt we will see many mfg's and dive shops "CLAIMING" they are
 DIR, as it may help drive sales.
 We may need to keep a list of who in fact is DIR.
