Okay, I'll bite. What's the Kool-Aid for?

DIR means Do It Right, which by it's very name implies that if you don't "Do It Right" then you "Do It Wrong"....

If that's how you want to see it. Personally, I infer that if you don't Do It Right, you Do It Left.

Or at least that's what I was told to make sure I did when I got my scooter ... :shocked2:

It really is a macabre phrase. Maybe we should use a different term. I always liked "going over to the Dark side"

... only if "the Dark side" is cherry flavored....

The only time I got in trouble with Kool-Aid while diving was on a science cruise. We were using it to show how sponges siphon water in and through while filter feeding, which we filmed. The team leaders slapped our hands for that one, citing the regulation (justified) "no foreign materials may be introduced into the environment". After all we WERE in a National Marine Sanctuary, so I totally understand.

Just like "Dive Rite" dive gear means all the other stuff is "Dive Wrong"?

Actually, Dive Rite dive gear would have to be for the liturgical style of divers, those who religiously practice certain rituals before or during diving. :blessing:

LOL. They can buy all their candles and whatnot at the religion superstore: Rite Aid.

So is there a "dive rite of passage"?

This thread makes me laugh considering the addition to my signature just a little while ago.

A good post for anyone wondering more about said kool-aid:http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/dir/44823-what-dir.html
