Episode 109 - A Brave New (Scuba) World or 1984 in 1975

As divers, we've all been taught that here in the US, Scuba is a "self regulated" sport and the government does not really oversee how we train and dive in the recreational side of our beloved activity. But it wasn't always this way... in fact, it was a close call in 1975 when big government wanted to get their greedy hands in the pockets of divers and save us all from ourselves. Thankfully, a few of our wise predecessors fought to keep the government out. It wasn't easy but we enjoy these freedoms now because of their fight and their sacrifices. If we're not careful we could easily lose these freedoms we enjoy. Those who don't learn about history are doomed to repeat it... so keep yourself from being doomed and have a listen to this week's episode!
