Hi Mal,
as always a very even handed post, you are of course right, exuberance is a fantastic thing but not when that exuberance involves trashing other agencies/styles/divers as so often happens, I'm fairly sure you didn't denigrate your equine instructors style once you had found your own
Bardo I feel possibly speaks with more insight than most as he has been in the dir world a while, and when you have post like this one from earlier today

Wouldn't have a stage on the right.

Wouldn't dive with 2 short hoses.
Wouldn't have so many D rings.
etc
That guy is just doing it wrong!!!!!! |
then it's hardly surprising that some folk form the opinions they do.
I agree uber gods appear in all walks of life but dir always has and still does attract more than it's share IMVHO.
Safe diving,
