Give me the evidence, then I'll listen.LOL. Your doubt is irrelevant to the reality.

Like I said, give me the evidence. Until then, I will regard these claims as "unsupported".I'm not very surprised to read that.
You continue to support my opinion about your worldview, BTW.
I did not say "if I don't, nobody does". What I said is you may be wrong in your generalizations. I'll be convinced by results of a blind (or even better, a double-blind) test, supported by of fatigue actually measured after dives.I'm getting a little tired of being told that my feeling better after a Nitrox dive than after an air dive is like religion. Get serious, folks! Firstly, I've provided a quite plausible hypothesis as to why I might feel better. Secondly, YOUR experience of NOT feeling better does not affect MY feeling better! People seem to be trying to argue that "if Tursiops feels better and I do not, that means Tursiops can't possibly be feeling better." The other way the argument is being presented is,. "I don't feel better after a Nitrox dive, so no one does." Yet, there a several of us who are perfectly willing to say that Nitrox works for us, in mitigating fatigue after a dive. Look, I'm a scientist, with several thousand Nitrox and air dives, and I'm an atheist. So don't play that religion card with me! And, take a look at the hypothesis about how Nitrox can work during the off-gassing phase to mitigate sub-clinical DCS. If you want to run controlled studies, take those of us who claim Nitrox benefits for mitigating fatigue, and double-blind us with a bunch of air or Nitrox dives. I'll happily participate.
How do one provide "evidence" that some divers - like I - feel lethargic after diving within PADI NDLs, but close to them? Do you require notarized affidavits?give me the evidence
Seriously? Where did I generalize? Or, was that you? Or, maybe you are changing your argument to find something you can win on? Anything at all? Good luck.I did not say "if I don't, nobody does".

No, I trust your word. But you can be honestly mistaken.How do one provide "evidence" that some divers - like I - feel lethargic after diving within PADI NDLs, but close to them? Do you require notarized affidavits?
So there is no evidence? OK.Seriously? Where did I generalize? Or, was that you? Or, maybe you are changing your argument to find something you can win on? Anything at all? Good luck.
LOL. I learned a long time ago not to play stupid games on the Internet, especially with people who keep changing the rules. It doesn't matter what "evidence" is provided, you'll say that is insufficient. So forget baiting me, I'm not biting.So there is no evidence? OK.
Your testimony does not count as an evidence. People believe in all kinds of silly things, like homeopathy or magnetic bracelets, but I need hard evidence.LOL.
