cam,
As Robert has written, DIR is more than gear,it is a mindset a way of doing
things,logically, cleanly, and most of all safely.To the solo bit, well
those who live in glass houses shouldn't through stones I can't say I've
never done it,but I will say I don't do it any more.
It goes to mindset, you wouldn't get in the water without a pressure gauge
would you? Of corse not it is a critical piece of gear, so to is your buddy.
safe diving, pk
