I dont need to be hit by a train as I watch one go by, to know *for sure*
that I wont dig the experience.

It's not a negative impression of rebreathers. A rebreather is a very
mission specific tool. No more, no less.

Its a negative impression of the number of absolutely needless deaths that
are occurring while diving rebreathers in a recreational arena.

And its a negative impression of the inability of IANTD (leading RB training
agency) and Tom Mount (CEO of IANTD) to see what the real problem is, let
alone do anything to change.
