It strikes me as a dangerous position, in that it could lead one to conceal a dcs hit. Your second sentence leads me to believe that embarrassing may not have been the word you meant. I don't understand your second sentence. It is easy to dive "correctly" and get bent. There is even a term for it. They are referred to as "unearned" hits. If embarrassing is truly what you meant to say, and if you choose to stick to that position, then I have nothing more to say, and will withdraw from this conversation, with appropriate apologies tendered all around. > > -- > Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@opal.com'. > Send subscription/archive requests to `techdiver-request@opal.com'. >
