Subject: training
Hi all!

George wrote what we'd need.
1) more spread-out training
2) groups that people who learn this game can dive with
3) enforce this before cave diving becomes an anachronism. 

So how could we do that? 
Just an example...
I'm moving to Colorado and want to cave dive regularly. I'd 
appreciate GUE instructors in that area, or at least people with a 
similar mindset that I buddy up with them. Due to the painful lack of 
sufficient vacation days, I'd like to be able to drive to some caves 
over weekends to keep trained and gain experience and would be even 
fine with crappy viz I'm used to anyway.  

The other thing I'd like to ask you all about (some lawyers out 
there?) is the liability problem when it comes to pool training. 
What I have in mind is a couple of certified divers breath 
holding, swimming, kicking, solving problems under water together. 
It's no replacement for other training, but a well working addition 
to it. 
The club is good for many other things as well, like regular med 
examinations, more training, it's delivers a nice list of possible 
buddies, you can always find people who know an answer and can 
physically help. 
I'm doing that training here in Europe now, once a week, and know 
its advantages for my real dives. I don't intend to earn money, the 
whole thing should be set up so that certified divers just join me. 
If something bad happened (never ever has during my training here), 
neither me nor the pool owners etc. should be responsible. It should 
be more an offer to do something good and fun together. 

Any suggestions will be well appreciated.
Thanks,
Claudia
