After the Beginners guide to ScubaBoard that El Orans suggested above, I'd suggest following this path to our forum for new divers: ScubaBoard.Com > Scuba Diving Central> New Divers & Those Considering Diving :newbie:

Let me know if I can help you find your way around here...

Hey Josh, welcome to SB, great analogy to spend 60% of your time with your family and 40% of your time diving. But a warning, you might spend 60% of your money on diving and only 40% on your family. All kidding aside, you found the right place to launch your new found love of diving into reality.

Josh,
A good sign of a good learner is to ask questions, feel free to ask away.
