Hi all,

Just to let you know that I've taken yet another step down to the dark side, to go with the twin set, long hose, side mount, wing and B/p, membrane dry suit,HID primary and bu light...I've just ordered THE book from dirdirect.

I'll read, comprehend, and inwardly digest it, before I start asking all "those" questions.

A couple of years ago I bought Vance Harlow's book on Regulator Maintenance and Repair, read it several times... then sent him 20 pages of corrections (units/ contradictions/errors) that were accepted by him with thanks.I get a bit pedantic / anal at times and won't agree to anything until I can see the reason for it....will I get the same response from you and the DIR heirarchy for asking questions / questionning DIR concepts/ doctrine/ ?dogma?....Even Jesus had Thomas to doubt him...

I'll read the book first....I'm already boring the rest (read non-DIR) members of one of my dive clubs and talking the hind legs off the other more enlightened members.

Cheers for now

BrianC

Brian,
Rest assured you will get a sensible response from all on here, providing your "arguments" are reasoned.

Anal and pedantic are something you'll also find on here so you'll fit right in :D

Ask away, there's a huge wealth of knowledge and experience on here from all over the world. They will be only too pleased to share that knowledge.

Cheers
