Re: interesting reading by Howard Hall
Very interesting article, and fun for me, an OC diver to read.
I'm sure that rebreather divers would find what he said familiar?
One thing I will comment on - The shame / embarassment / macho BS / whatever-psychological-name-you-want-to-put-on-it thing in human nature that doesn't want to talk about stupid mistakes made while diving.
I of course can see this tendency in myself, but I have learned more lessons and deeper ones from people's and my own screw ups than almost any other way. Come on people! Don't be afraid to share your mistakes. The life you save may be very close to you...
