Steve,

	Both my personal experience and also in reading the other posts from
this list has shown one thing to ALWAYS be true. If anyone asks a question
in a simple and straightforward manner and then takes the answers for what
they are which is advice from people who have A LOT more experience than the
person asking, then there is no swearing or flaming. There is a great
trading of information and it is FREE for the asking.

	I have learned so much more in a few months from this list than I
ever did from any course I have taken up to this point (These were all from
PADI so this is a no brainer). I personally have asked some very basic
questions and this whole list has been happy to provide information without
name calling or being considered an inferior diver for not knowing it. 

	The only time when warfare breaks out is when someone comes on this
list trying to prove they are better or smarter than the very people they
are asking questions to. All you have to do is go back and look at the posts
and you will see that this is the case. Questions and comments are answered
in the same manner as the original post. If the original is a legitimate
comment or question then it is replied to in the same manner. If the
original is the tossing of a hand grenade, the tosser is blown to oblivion
with nuclear weapons. If you have a problem with this, then go to a Dive
Girl rah rah meeting. They'll welcome you with open arms.

	Something to think about,

	Don
