    This fellow turned out to be very odd.  He modified destructively the rented dive suit and fins, didn't want to dive, eat or socialize with the group to the point of saying he hated everyone.

    Glasses rubberbanded to the outside of the mask.  I wonder if it corrected well.

    This guy overworked the staff by demanding to dive on an opposite schedule to the rest of the group.  We called him the 'goby' because he only came out of his room when the rest of us were away from the lounge.
