TT ----- Original Message ----- From: Manos Manoli To: Tech Diver Sent: Monday, February 12, 2001 5:48 AM Subject: Magazine Strokes Well since the list works again ill try to bring something on: Have you ever notice some pictures in some " serious " tech magazines ? It makes me wonder how could those divers live to make it over and over again ... Large steel deco tanks , wet suits and 18ltr on their back , " you name it " regulators .... and the story goes on and on .... I also really find my self amazed when I saw the Diving fatality report for year 2000. I was even more disappointed when I went through the reasons that people got injured Or killed. I got so impressed by this unique symptom , the " I wanna do it my way because my way works " approach.. .. And then they die or they spend the rest of their life on a wheelchair. Or the other type , the ones that they want to re-invent the wheel. Those are the guys that you see every day on some diving magazines , showing off in a 70M dive with twin independent and 15ltr steel stage tanks , breathing air. It makes you want to find the editor and .. Why the magazines don't show those people when they get treated in decompression chambers ? It doesn't make sense why some people don't want to learn from others mistakes ? Why don't this " expert " divers get a copy of those Fatality reports every year . ? Why most organizations give so much Attention on what you have to do rather on what you SHOULD NEVER - EVER DO. And the story goes on and on .... people diving wrong gas , wrong equipment , wrong attitude ?
