There is too much bad and just plain wrong information in this page to
list it all, but this statement takes the cake:

'Monitoring your air pressure is an important prevention against the
bends.'

And not a word anywhere about actually getting certified by a
qualified instructor. Can't wait for someone to outfit himself
completely and waddle off into the surf with no instruction to die in
five feet of water, as he watches his air pressure prevent the
bends...

From the same page, "Because scuba diving is a strenuous activity, you may
want to consult your doctor if you do not have experience diving."

Yeah, I wish I'd thought of that. Could have saved a lot of time and
money if I'd just asked my doctor if it was okay if I go diving...
