I am not a PC type person. ...
Good to see there are other non PC people around. I agree.. I think there are far too many people who just happen to be scuba divers who think they know what is right for this planet.
I personally tell all the DMs on the boats we take in Cozumel that they cant go killing at lionfish when we are with them. Its my favorite fish. Just looks so much better than the other fish. Throw in that its good at what it does and its just more admirable.
One thing we noticed recently while diving in Florida compared to diving in Cozumel:
When diving in Coz, you see some spiny lobsters get on the boat and discuss it.. When diving in Florida, you see some spiny lobsters, get on the boat and then get to hear everyone ask you why you didnt grab it! (the very next dive there were people with at least 9 of them)
So very different on how they look at things and how they act (the divers)..
My family and I love Cozumel for its diving and just wish people would stop being so uptight.
Just to mess with all the anal divers, we wear shirts that show DDT (Dangerous Dive Team) and a logo and it has the words Dive Dangerously - Leave Nothing Untouched!
So much fun to see peoples reactions and how mad they would get just by reading it.
Next June - July, we will be back there and will have the updated 2010 shirts made up!
