my wife and i like to go scuba diving.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Scuba diving is a form of underwater diving where the diver uses a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (scuba) which is completely independent of surface supply, to breathe underwater. Scuba divers carry their own source of breathing gas, usually compressed air, allowing them greater independence and freedom of movement than surface-supplied divers, and longer underwater endurance than breath-hold divers. Open circuit scuba systems discharge the breathing gas into the environment as it is exhaled, and consist of one or more diving cylinders containing breathing gas at high pressure which is supplied to the diver through a regulator. They may include additional cylinders for decompression gas or emergency breathing gas. Closed-circuit or semi-closed circuit rebreather scuba systems allow recycling of exhaled gases. The volume of gas used is reduced compared to that of open circuit, so a smaller cylinder or cylinders may be used for an equivalent dive duration. Rebreathers extend the time spent underwater compared to open circuit for the same gas consumption, they produce fewer bubbles and less noise than scuba which makes them attractive to covert military divers to avoid detection, scientific divers to avoid disturbing marine animals, and media divers to avoid bubble interference.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "My wife and I love to go scuba diving. We usually use a rebreather too so we can extend the time underwater"}, {"role": "user", "content": "My wife and I do as well, we really enjoy diving in Hawaii.  Where have you gone diving before?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "We've been cave diving in some water-filled caves in Costa Rica!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Cave diving seems especially risky, I bet it's quite thrilling!"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yeah.. it's an extreme sport because it can be dangerous. It' commonly done for scientific reason too because it's a whole new world."}, {"role": "user", "content": "It really is, there's a lot to be learned from cave diving.  New species, cave drawings, ancient burial sites and more.  Pretty great stuff."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yes. We're both actually members of the NACD.
