It is not a matter of old school or stubbornness. it's analyzing benefits versus risks Again, no one seems to accept that someone can dive hogarthian and not accept every single edict from the DIR most recent statement. Is a seven foot hose better than a five foot hose in the ocean if no penetration is involved and light is not an issue? In fact if you look at the first DIR tape and the second, most recent one, innovations were introduced such as "allowing" divers to use the extra belt buckle to hold their canister in place. Some divers were doing this before the second video - were they 'stroke" before the video and "not stroke" after the video. Were they closed minded, old school before the video and not afterwards? One can dive using a redundant bottom timer and still be hogarthian, have a "good" diving attitude and an open mind. A bottom timer gives you depth and time in one compact unit. Those of you using extra casio watches do not have a back up depth device. Chris Werner wrote: > ----- Original Message ----- > > There is no difference.
