Reference: To line or to progress?

Answer: Both

No matter how familiar I am with a wreck, I ALWAYS run a line.  For all I 
know, some other diver may follow me in and silt out the place.  No 
matter how familiar I am, the silt can ruin your whole life.

On the other hand, lines can also break -- especially if you're trying to 
work fast and haven't had a lot of experience with it.  Therefor, be 
familiar with the wreck.

Basically, there is no ONE technique that is the perfect technique.  
Redundancy is good and, in this case, the redundancy for familiarity is 
the line and the redundancy for the line is familiarity.

Oh, and practice, practice, practice ::grin::

It is hard to disagree with a pro-survival decision,
     It is even harder to engage in prolonged arguments
          with someone who consistently makes anti-survival decisions.
