What I take from it is that there are no "little things" in a cave. The negative scooter turned out to be a BIG deal in an unforeseen problem circumstance, as might the intermittently freeflowing reg.
I think, from my lofty perch on a grand total of about 50 cave dives, that it could be extremely easy to get blase about small problems, and say, "Oh, it's okay, I can deal with that." When the unforgiving nature of cave diving is going to magnify the effect of anything that isn't working correctly, when the cave itself gets in your way.
Thanks again for writing.
