Todd, substitute "wasting money " for "idiocy" if that helps clarify it
for you. Either way, I was a freaking idiot for buying the crap I
bought, and in fact it was due to being ignorant an sutpid enough to not
back up and realize what I was dealing with, and eagerness to just get
on with the show. 

I am a little more careful when I buy things now ( not dive gear
things).
