Hi Mark, my point about the word "experience" is the way it is used to imply that a diver has more then they really do, like a diver that has 200 dives, but that 190 of them were in a local swim pool in 15 feet of fresh water. What I get concerned about is when you hear or see a report of a diver related accident, and only hear or see the word used to describe them "experienced diver", well with that tearm and your definition a student diver with one pool session is a experienced diver.
