Okay, so if computers rot yer brain, what does that say for all of us on SCUBA Board that use computers to log on to read it???
And what about those supposedly "smart computer geeks" that know all about how to fix them thar contraptions an such? Does that mean they have advanced brain rot?
C'mon Doc, everyone KNOWS that a TPII is the best for a single tank diver...

Well
. Our LDS caters to commercial and Navy divers, so they were straight with us. I was too ignorant (and paranoid) at the time to realize that they were telling it like it is. Problem is most of the people there have less dives than I do. The experienced divers told me
. You will want a drysuit, back inflation, NITROX. I kept saying
Ill only dive in the tropics. I do not need that stuff. Two years later
I have all of that stuff.
I do wish the staff were more experienced. There is one guy with 5000+ dives (no joke, caves, Doria. ..) the rest are less then 50.
I guess they are an exception. BTW the 5K+ guy and I talk GUE on at times. I think he is streaching/growing .... The shop is another question.

1st Visit.
Apeks? Never heard of them, must be a cheap and nasty copy of something.
2nd Visit.
Oh, about your Apeks, I found out they are zeagles, just a cheaper version, made for the rental market.

well i can tell the sarcastic tone in that one through the internet but mike why would you consider that statement that was made to you a lie ?
Because I later found out that that instructors opinion on what is best changes weekly depending on what new things he has to sell. Also of course because I used those fins long enough to know they are not the best. In fact I have use many different fins and I like tham all better.
