    I would suggest that anyone who takes the time and effort to report a standards violation of this magnitude get free helium for life.
    Seems a fair and just reward to me.

    I went ahead and changed that to be how it should have been written. Ever think about hanging up the moderator hat? Might not be a bad idea.

    I was talking to a guy Monday who apparently witnessed these two divers at Ginnie. He and his team were on the way in. They stopped and my friend got out his wet notes and told them to get out. The single tank diver gave him a OK and head nod in the affirmative. My friend and his team proceeded on at this point, and continued their dive.
    The Instructor should be reported, whether PADI does anything or not. It will at least put PADI on notice this guy is grossly violating standards. At the very least, he should lose his card to instruct, anyone. Hopefully PADI will do the right thing.

    I'd be down with that Ken.

    I'd settle for free heated undergarments though if I HAD to.

    Please. Let's not derail this thread or detract from the important issues at hand.

    Govern yourself accordingly.

    To the OP:

    You can report this to PADI. Or you can spend that same ten minutes beating your head against a brick wall.

    Either one will accomplish the same thing.

    Always seek the advice of others, but NEVER let anyone else do your thinking for you.

    I didn't attach a pic. I wasn't joking about about beating on the OP on here.
