[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3196073, member: 10465"] Sounds like maybe he is just stupid. Or just got careless. You are right though, every time something "innocent" like this happens, it hurts us all. As far as getting comfortable with something, being comfortable can lead to being careless. Careless can kill you. I try not to let myself get too comfortable with things I have grown accustomed to so I don't get careless. Back in the day, I did a lot of diving and parachuting. A lot. I was very comfortable with those activities then too. I had to focus to make myself not get [I]too[/I] comfortable though. I'd hate to be the Recon Marine who drowned because he didn't double check his gear, and switched over to his pony bottle only to find it empty. Or the one who went splat because he was sleepy and dozing during a long flight and put his Alice Pack on in the dark instead of his parachute. Ever leave the house and go about your day and when you get home, realize you had left the mag out of your gun? That happened to m....uh...to a...friend of mine once. [/QUOTE]
