Eric , you are right. IANTD refurses to update and they refuse to even revert back to standards long recongnized by commercial and military organizations as safer than what they teach to RECREATIONAL divers, who are not getting paid to risk their lives and are not at war. What is wrong with this picture? Why does Shell Oil U.K. do it the way I do it, and IANTD does it in a manner that Shell Oil considers to be a safety violation? It is time to hear the virtues of this stupidity, or it's time for IANTD to change. Which is it going to be? - G << Start of Forwarded message via prodigy (R) mail >> From: Eric Lundquist Subject: Re: tech diver?

Unfortunately, I think the big beef people have with IANTD is their steadfast refusal to update their organaization (esp. in regards to deep air), hence the often-used term "blatant institutionalized strokery". -Eric ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Eric Lundquist, Systems Manager ericl@oc*.wa*.ed* (206)543- 0594 School of Oceanography, Box 357940, Univ of Wash, Seattle, WA, USA 98195 http://www.ocean.washington.edu/people/staff/ericl/ -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@terra.net'.
