A bit off topic for scubaboard but there is so much knowledge here I have to ask. My community pool prohibits the use of masks (goggles are ok) if it covers the nose because, according to the bureaucrat I asked "water can be inhaled and cause drowning."
I have to ask, is this completely insane? Couldn't they use the same logic to ban *swimming* in a public pool?
I want to get my 6-year old ready for snorkeling before we go back to the Caribbean and he doesn't feel comfortable with goggles anyway, or with bare face in the water. I want some ammunition to use against these bureaucrats to push back with and get the rule changed. I'm supervising him closely.
