Yeah...maybe we can set up an Uncle Pug fundamentals class!
I think we're onto something here... In Lake Superior at the Madeira? It's a nice warm 38 degrees.

I'm with you! So... where do we buy stock?WreckWriter once bubbled...
.....The DIR approach is, in my opinion, the future face of diving. Within 10 years a diver who isn't diving a Hogarthian rig will be as uncommon as a diver today wearing a horsecollar BC and only one second stage. It's coming, ........I think there will be modifications as it grows......but the end result will be a better, safer sport for everyone.
Face it, it's everywhere now, catching on like wildfire. Hang on

If Halcyon stock were available I would sink every dime I could scrape up into it. Unfortunately it's not and isn't likely to be as Robert and JJ would then have to give up some control.
I really believe this, my earlier post was not a joke.

I still think that you are correct.
I thought you were the one with the Lear...MNScuba once bubbled...
Sure! Can you make it to Minnesota by then?
Oh... that was just on your face...
Hmmm....
Well give me some time to work on it.
And no... I don't do fundamentals classes....
I am just a lowly propagandist.
OP
I was kinda put off by the whole elitist attitude also, but I took the class anyway. I'm glad I did and I learned a lot. One of the main things I learned is that DIR isnt what most people portray it as on the net, which is why I posted this poll. Not surprisingly, very few that have responded have actually taken a class.
The report on the class I took is buried somewhere in the recent archives of this forum if anyone wants to take a look of how a class REALLY goes.
