Who disagrees with DIR and why?

Jon,
Having not known any of these divers, or their qualifications..Let me put this one at you....A Trimix diver...there must have been special circumstances to that..was he inside? A commercial diver...i bet he was inside, and was he a freshly practiced diver on SCUBA. You mentioned an instructor....you yourself have stated that this means nothing because you have had to save them...and the 15 year old...Got separated from his buddy..so, he wasnt trained to dive solo.(was this the drysuit diver that removed gear?) In my statement, i mentioned that a solo diver is responsible for him or herself, and are supposed to self regulate their diving. They are supposed to regulate it to a point that they are not in a situation that they cannot get out of safely...Of these solo divers that died on the Willie, how many of them were within these limits.

Keep in mind..i almost always dive with a buddy and have no problem with the thought of a buddy....but what about deep, deep wreck diving..do you really think it is ALWAYS best?
