	I just wrote a mail to a friend explaing my
	evolution over four years of diving. I thought
	this paragraph from the letter puts it right:

        My buddy and I are about the only DIR divers in Eastern Ontario. 
	I first started learning about teck diving from a small group 
	of divers in Quebec (french) who are more or less DIR. I listened 
	to the people who made most sense and I didn't find "personal
preference" 
	a convincing argument; rather it seemed to excuse a lack of thinking.

        I can't understand why people can't at least agree the prinipals
behind
	it are pretty obvious:

        The minimum necessary
        System redundancy and back-up plans
        Streamlining
        Training
        FEMA (engineering term for failure modes and effects analysis)

        This appeals to my engineering mind.
        
	BTW Any other DIR out here in Ottawa?
