Hello
I am new to rebreatherworld (registered yesterday) and just wanted to introduce myself. Please excuse me if opening a new thread is not the proper way to do it (I haven't found out how to make a post yet. Any help would be gretly appreciated). Also excuse my poor English. Anyway, My name is Daniel.I made my first open circuit dive in 1975 here in Venezuela. I have been diving OC with more or less frequency since then. Back then there were little formal recognized traning and certification here, so I began in a way being somewhat "self-taught" so to speak, but I was a voracious reader of everything related to diving (not all of it was current knoledge of course).
Later I studied Biology, obtained formal certification in a recognized training agency and I have done a little scientific diving (Venezuelan style) at the University. So far as I know rebreather diving here is non-existing (except maybe in the oil extraction industry or the military) but no technical divers that I heard of so Im a "rebreather-virgin", but I have a lot of curiosity about the possibilities for tech and/or scientific diving, even though I have almost no academical or practical knowledge about it. Anyway I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.
Greetings to all of you
Daniel
