It's a documentary.

But probably a faked one.

Not absolute historical truth in the way that "The Social Network" is.

Actually, I think we'll spend most of our time saying to each other, "I never pictured you looking like this," and things like that. Maybe we should come dressed like our Avatar. Actually, on second thought, my avatar doesn't wear much, so that's a bad idea! Maybe just the face.

I was interested in attending this hypothetical reunion, but sorry, I refuse to fly ANYWHERE over 9/11.
I think we should have local area or State reunions. We couldn't meet everyone, but the cost would not be prohibitive either. It would be nice if some of the DME'S would get together and arrange these!!! They could have door prizes every hour for stuff like new masks, chinstraps, hosebuddys, and the like!

Yes, all you would need is blue face paint. I would face a bigger challenge.
However, I suppose it could be worse. Think of all those who would have to come as cats, dogs, other fauna and flora, cars, geometric patterns and scenery, especially the underwater kind.

You could just wear a feather in your hat! (And grow a beard, although I don't know what that would do to your mask seal.)

All the cat avatars with cats in various lying around positions kind of blend in together for me. I would have a great deal of trouble differentiating one cat from another. DreamDiver could just wear scuba gear. The bird people (e.g., -SWS, Rested Gal, Scrapper, etc.) would have to work harder on their costumes.

I guess we could all just blow up a big picture of our avatar and hang it on a sign over our necks. That would be easiest.

And I could carry a frame with me and then just walk around with this same goofy grin.

OK I'm ready ( don't need anytime to work on my costume) Just need to fix my hair and I'm off!!!
Where and when just let me know.
This sounds like a great idea that will never happen....well one can dream.

Rooster- I LOVE it!!! My avatar is one of the baby owlets that fledged around maybe March or April of 2010, the ones from San Marcos, Calif, that was published on the OWLBOX.com. This is one of the babies singing the Molly Bobble song!!! I did not even conciously put this avatar in, apparently my computer just searched for a picture and chose one from my files.

Yes, I would need to glue some feathers and a beak on and lose a LOT of weight before the reunion!!!

I thought you look familiar...

I remember the OwlBox. It was great to look in on the whole process.
