everyone insists that its dangerous...but no one seems to know why?

I would say no.  ;-)  You're talking about nervous fidgeting, right?  I'm not sure why anyone would think that's dangerous.

Because no one dares to. That's the TRUE reason. Forget all superficial fabricated lies you hear every day on the media.

This lady above me is being a TAD overdramatic. There are plenty of things that EVERYONE does that negatively effect other peoples health. (aka, driving a car creates smog, using hairspray depletes the ozone and on and on and on.) Using scare tactics for any reason is stupid. If something is bad enough, then you should be able to just lay out the facts for people and have them make their own decision. Not to mention that all this anti smoking crap is a waste of money, find me ONE smoker who doesnt know its bad for them..

Firstly i have to mention, Whilst I am certified, I'm not the most experienced diver, so I cant speak for everyone,but I think everyone dives for their own reasons, and some of us may not be all that sane :) but I can tell you why I do. It is like going to another planet, the beauty never fails to surprise and amaze. Every single dive is different and you never know what you'll see. If your want you can interact with amazing wildlife, and some of them want to play with you! As a water baby I find an awesome sense of peace by just being underwater, I cant believe that not everyone feels the same way...And the way you feel more alive just after a dive is worth all the trouble. Yes we do have to ALWAYS have to keep in mind the dangers, there are so many of them, but I think that goes hand in hand with respecting the amazing environment we are about to enter, our bodies are not built to go where it cant get its most fundamental need, air, but a lucky few of us brave it anyway.. Hopefully the dangers keep people who shouldn't be diving out of it..bad buddy experience..

Darn good question, I have lately become concerned that this whole country is just getting to a point where there is no more self responsibility.  The govt told me to wear a seatbelt, therefore if I still got hurt cuz I was drunk driving, clearly it is the govt's fault.\n\nI am sorry I am not going to be much help, because I don't know where that line should be drawn...\nI think I read someone's answer the other day that said when our freedom infringes on another's - that's when they should definitely step in.  But then some people also need extra help to keep from killing themselves.\n\nI look forward to someone having the right answer.

Everyone is flawed in major ways. We are all driven by feelings, emotions and this just totally messes up with the logic that is everyones dream: Trust and Love. The solution is to not give up hope, because there are still some cool people out there that are honest and genuine. Everyone else is a slave to their own small fears, prejudices and silly mood changing crap. Dont accept it from anyone.

If a doctor EVER gets upset at you questioning them, they are automatically in the wrong. Part of their job is KNOWING. Whether or not it was dangerous isn't really the issue, but if they cannot give you a scientific reason that it is safe, then why should you listen to them? Because they have a piece of paper that says so? Please! \n\nI'm highly allergic to a specific antibiotic, which a doctor at one point prescribed to me due to a brain fart. If I didn't challenge that decision, I could be seriously harmed. Was I wrong for doing so? Of course not.\n\nAny good doctor will have faith in his answer, and a foundation for giving it, and would gladly have you seek a second opinion if you were in doubt, even after his explination.\n\nRemember, just because someone is educated does not make them automatically intelligent. Now if the answer is too complex for a patient to understand or comprehend, the doctor surely can't be condemned for that. But being uppity just because he was questioned is ridiculous.

You shouldn't worry what people might think,you have NO control over this...Do whats best for you... If you think about it people are going to think what that want anyway...If you fall out on a pavement because you got too  woozy,   People would probably think..call 911..Its a lot of people out there that would help you, but you don't want it to go that far.  .You don't want your condition getting worse, because you are paranoid about taking a pill in public.  I like the idea of putting your pills in a different container, something like a tic-tac container,  (candy) ...who would ever know, unless you tell somebody. Stop worrying about folks.....If people would mind their own business you probably wouldn't be paranoid in the first place.  Please stop worrying and take good care of yourself.  If anyone ever questions you about what you are taking,  just tell them the truth, show them the pill and tell them what would happen if you don't take it,  more than likely they will understand.

Yes , it MIGHT be dangerous , I MIGHT be an Axe wielding maniac , who knows?\nI for one , know i am not dangerous , unless some people consider helping others a bad thing.\nYou have to trust your instincts , if you feel it could be a dangerous person , it would be best to "back off".\nThere are many "wolves in sheep's clothing" in this world and it can be hard to trust anyone , even someone you meet on the street.\n\nI may be wrong , but are you refering to me?\nIt's up to you to decide.

What he meant is that people around the world are UNCONCERNED. We all know that there will are evil people who will do evil deeds. But what are we going to do about it? The world is dangerous because people are unconcerned about these things.\n\nHe is persuading us TO CARE and BE COCERNED about what is happening around us and DO THE RIGHT THING.

For credible people, in the past I had let go several grams of sodium for just few bucks or even for free esp. for those curious collectors or grad students needed small quantity of the metal for many purposes (from as simple as drying their ether to reduce some novel organic compunds).\n\nIf others remind u of how dangerous something is, that means people are still care about the well-being of others (including u)... without that the world would just collapse in a matter of nights if not sooner.\n\nPeace!!

Wow, that's a really deep question and a good one at that.  \nI think a lot of people really hit the mark on the nose, but I'm not surprised to see a lot of ignorant answers like that first one, Madelaine.  \n\nCompare it to a little kid who, when you try to tell him that he's doing something wrong, he puts his fingers in his ears and screams.  \n\nIt is scary that so many people blindly believe.  This is what happened with Hitler and the Houlocaust, and even more recently with Bush in Iraq.  I know I'm veering off subject here, but I'm just trying to point out that blindly believing without question is very dangerous. It's worse when people like Ted Haggard, Jim Bakker, and Pat Robertson are trusted with souls of the masses. \n\nGood for you for realizing it!  Hopefully you woke a few people up.
