I have not been around for the experiences that make up the joke, so did not
get it, nor do I get it now - still don't know the players. I will take your
word for it.

Part of the reason that I did not spot the joke is that I see divers down
here with cages and regulator guards on their tanks, among other ridiculous
things, and it seems every other one is some kind of tech instructor.
