Hey Bill;

I am not a RB diver and followed the first link and read the article.

 From what I understand, reading the comments, those are such delicate, 
feeble machines, that I don't understand why someone would put their 
lifes on the line diving them.

I am talking about the comments that are supposed to contradict Mr. 
Irvines assessments.

Just thinking that I am diving for a while in maybe cold water (most 
likely where I am at) and that I have to turn on my back because of 
entanglement, emergency of my buddy or just to look at something and the 
dropplets could fall on the sensors...

Or I am back on the boat, put my BI down, or upright or whatever, and 
some non-RB diver, tries to make space and moves the RB aside, turns it 
over and maybe back... and I go diving again...

That's maybe only some minor issue, but I love my life too much to live 
and dive with such uncertainties, whereas thousands of Inspiration 
divers have no problems with. But that's them.

Regards

Udo
