Before anyone jumps on that advice, be advised that these are the
folks that plead guilty to negligence for stranding 2 divers overnight
back in 2000, according to this pleading:

As i say..........try aqua nuts............you can bet that their safety
procedures are NOT lacking now..........kinda like the best time to fly is
after 911........

I dived with them in Jan 2000........i guess i should count me and my wife
as lucky not to be the two that got left behind..........

After the Australian incident, and given that this was year 2000, there
wasn't anyone who didn't understand the importance of confirming passenger
presence before departing a dive site. To me this just seems like callous
negligence. We should want to reward outfits that have proven to practice
safe procedures for the guests, not those who have proven
otherwise....regardless of how good they have become of late.

Actually, AquaNuts problem predates the one in Australia. (And Open Water.)

Actually, unless AquaNuts has done it more than once.......it doesn't.

Actually, it doesn't matter which was first. It does not take a rocket
scientist to know that you are supposed to return to the dock with the same
number of people you left with or to figure out how to know that you will.
