I think this article should be merged withScuba.DJ Clayworth 21:25, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

One of the things the article is trying show is that SCUBA is just one equipment solution to the problems of diving - there are others types such as surface supplied, saturation and technical diving as well as a range of other equipment, techniques and problems that all divers share whether they dive using SCUBA or not. Mark.

I've moved the contents of this article todiving to make thediving article more of a navigation hub to all forms for "diving". Mark.
