Newbie to all this diving stuff? I thought you were an instructor.
 
Oh...I am. But being an instroketor these days, does not qualify one as an experienced diver!!! Also, I guess I should've clarified that statement about being a newbie. I am a newbie to "cyber diving", or talking about diving. Is there some kind of specialty card I could get? This cyber diving stuff reminds me of a guy that used to work at a shop that I taught at. He'd love this forum. He had a big mouth and was always spoutin' out advice. One day I was asked to cover a class for another instroketor and this guy was this instructors assistant. I asked him how far he was certified to and he said advanced (so not even a certified asst.), I said he could still help with class but only in the capacity as an aid to help demonstrate skills with me. Well, when I asked him to be the OOA diver in an OOA drill for demo, he just rolled his eyes at me and acted pissed off, as if it were below him to do this. I took him aside and asked him how much diving had he done, come to find out he had approx. 30 dives under his belt and was only recently certified. But, he added, he has about 100 pool dives. I about fell over, I told him to go for his pool diver card. He left the shop not too long after that, I couldn't look him straight in the face without laughing, and it was real bad when I would come in to the shop and see him behind the counter dishing out little morsels of wisdom gleaned from his VAST experience. But to hear him talk, he was Jacques F'ng Cousteau. I am surprised he wasn't a Navy Seal too.:)
