Here's my concern: this is a rather esoteric topic, once filled with subtleties and oddities. The likelihood of a student who has no idea of and no interest in CCR diving getting this right is in my mind 0. Sure, we can remove this requirement, but then the mentor has to be a CCR diver - I cannot mentor the student since I have no idea about CCR diving and am frankly actively freaked out by it. /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.hohndel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
