Open water students are often cautioned that if they swim 100 miles out to sea, it drops off to 500 feet... how's that ? ;-) I've seen few quarries where there is not at least a hard to find hole, if not an easy to find large area where depths are much greater than OW training standards. > While you may subscribe to the personal freedom interpretation of diving > limits that says only you are responsible for you, those of us who survive > your antics will surely call stupidity just that. Al, you cannot survive someone else's self-responsibility "antics". Their "antics" do not affect your dive if you take responsibility for yourself. Unless of course you have abdicated your own self- responsibility to the other person. This of course is where it boggles the mind to hear that someone does not want to be responsible for themself and doesn't expect others to be as well.
