JT, I appreciate your standing up for Jim Cobb. All I can say is that I understand your comments. And clearly your experience of Jim is vastly different from mine.

None whatever. I know Jim very well and you are wrong, he is no more DIR than I am, we both break rule number 1 on every dive, dive solo, use dacor and apollo scooters(not gavins) and many other DIR ways, Jim only uses the things that are correct for us from the DIR system and boldly defends those things as they are the best ways. >His web site only proves that he can parrot back information fed to him (by >bottle probably) from the DIR powers that be.

Very few have information that they themselves have created, Jim is no different from most in that aspect, he only puts it all in one place for everyone to go look and they can decide for him or herself. You will also find many non-DIR things in his site as well. >Christian, part of the learning process is to think and analyze for yourself. > This is clearly not allowed under the DIR regime.

I agree with you here, I do not like the way Jim post sometimes, but you started this with him, so take the heat from it. > People ask questions and then get flamed if they further >question the garbage that is sometimes (notice I said sometimes and not often >or even usually) spewed back for answers.

Most you guys out there used to say Jim didn't know what he is talking about, cause he wasn't doing the real dives, now he is doing them deeper and longer than those who said that. If you don't like the answers, I wouldn't ask the questions if I were you.
