since you have snipped some quotes which are very
emotional, i'm curious about the rest of the article
(since i don't get the 'ottawa sun times').
**was this diver diving alone or w/a buddy?
if w/a buddy, then he wasn't doing anything against
your creed.
**was he diving deep or shallow?
if diving shallow, then he wasn't doing anything
against your creed.
**was he diving air, nitrox, heliox, trimix?
**was he diving a wreck?? since that's what this
whole initial issue revolves around.
**what was the cause of death? was he bitten by
an animal? run over by a boat/pwc? had a heart attack?
some other physiological illness?
**was he a so-called experienced diver? or a newbie?
**was he suicidal?
**was he in a class and got overtasked and panicked
and drowned?
i'm surprised that you, of all people, are not
providing more significant details w/which we
can analyze this situation more accurately to
determine if this sad, tragic death is indeed
an example for your argument to regulate wreck
diving.
