Acknowledgments
Mer would personally like to thank all of her dive buddies who have fed the addiction and passion all these years; her students and guidees who have both challenged her and allowed her the joy of sharing her passions; dedicated video divers for demonstrating how this team thing works; her parents, co-workers, and real estate clients for tolerance of occasional “underwater-outages”; Bob Sherwood for getting Mer into GUE the right way; Team Redemption and David Rhea for making sure Mer was thoroughly cave-addicted; Gerard Newman for additional perspective, mentorship, sanity dives, and amazing pizza; the greater Ohana of Kona Diving Company for kidnappings and generally providing a kick-butt good time; Steve Gamble and Helen Graauw for keeping her dry; the Wednesday night dive regulars for life advice, diving pontification, and generally blowing off steam; Team Honey Badger for reasons they don’t care about; Extreme Exposure for being logistical gurus; her fellow Instructor-candidates for camaraderie and an inappropriate Spanish vocabulary; the ladies at HQ (and Andreas) for answering many of Mer’s stupid website back-end questions; amazing instructor mentorship from Joakim Hjelm, Sonya Tittle, Ed Hayes, Kooz du Preez, and Doug Mudry; and patient and quality instructor development by Guy Shockey, Mark Messersmith, Graham Blackmore, Karim Hamza, Kirill Egorov, Chris LeMaillot, Fred Devos, David Rhea, and Danny Riordan.
