What a crock.

Lets see, of all the local LDS's in my area (about 50) 5 are worth a shit,
the rest are vampires looking for blood to suck.
They are staffed by morons with patch covered jackets proclaiming their
expertise, and selling mostly useless garbage at best,
dangerous garbage at worst. Get rid of all the shit shops, the mandatory
mark-up schemes, parasites and thieves, and you could
have competitive pricing.

In fact, I know of one shop that the "technician" is stoned or drunk 24/7,
he stinks like dog shit when he opens his mouth
to speak, and is as filthy as any human you would ever care to encounter.
And, because he cares so much about his customers,
rather than use the proper lubricant when assembling regs (about 50% of
which he fucks up), he just puts a little spit on the
o-rings for you.

Now, explain to me why *anyone* should be forced, in any way, to do any
business with this creep?

Is it O2 friendly spit?

Sounds like a class act.

And they wonder why I'm starting to prefer sailing.

Must be one hell of a six pack.

A simple backplate & harness would better suit your needs. You won't need to
replace it if you stop working out so much and lay off the steroids.

Watch it - you are gonna be labeled a DIR twat with advice like that.

Yeah, I guess you're right. Better to go for a cluttered BC which doesn't
even work for you as is & needs ridiculous modifications. And then if you do
even loose weight will stop working for you & you'll need a new one. Or you
could buy a simple backplate & wing setup that will easily accommodate any
size of diver, but people might call you names. And if you are -not
muscular- will give you way better trim.

I think the thing that stings is the calibre of person throwing names like
"DIR twat" around. Obviously it hurts when a person of renown, someone with
a name you recognise calls you names. It hurts when its someone you look up
to.
