Okey-dokey...

I read somewhere that Vortex has recently changed management...was wondering if anyone has stayed there recently? Has anything changed, as far as the rules and whatnot? Do they still allow diving beyond the gate with a full cave card?

Removing a deco gas is easy...put your finger on the gas you wish to delete, and swipe with a leftward motion. A red "Delete" button should appear...press that and your gas will go away :) Your surface interval will be removed along with any dive after the surface interval, if you set the...

When I put in 1% helium, it looks like the program misreads it as 100% helium, and since one can't have 21% O2 AND 100% HE, the program comes up with some weird number. It's only on 1% HE; if you put in 2% HE or greater, it seems to work just fine. I wasn't able to recreate your second...

Good point...I guess you'll just have a very expensive iPod Touch :D

Sold!

Tentatively sold, awaiting payment

I've got a three year old reg that's kind of in pieces right now...I tried to disassemble the DIN adaptor and reintall the yoke adaptor and couldn't figure out how to put it back together. It's never been serviced, but breathed OK the last time I used it a few weeks ago. It's the only Scubapro...

Looking for a Luxfer AL80...would prefer a DIN valve, but yoke is OK. Current VIS and hydro. I'd rather not deal with shipping, but I can pick up anywhere in Birmingham/Tuscaloosa Alabama area, or Marianna/Ponce De Leon Florida area. I have a black Catalina 80 with a yoke valve, out of vis...

I think all the available information has already been posted. There's just not much to know, unfortunately.

I kind of hope that's not the case, unless they know, without a shadow of a doubt, that there is an appropriately trained MD immediately available, the chamber team is ready to go, there is no other patient in the chamber, etc, etc. Kind of a hard thing to know for sure during a 15 min...

Just to throw out an alternate viewpoint: When I called DAN, I got exactly the same kind of service the OP expected...but on my third call. Called the first time, was advised to go to the ED for eval. Called the second time the next morning, and was strongly advised to go to the ED for...

To me, a "pony bottle" is a small cylinder of gas that you take with you in addition to your main gas supply, with it's own separate regulator and (maybe) an SPG. It is used ONLY as a emergency gas source, for either you or another diver. If anyone has to use the pony, the dive is OVER. It is...

I think, that with an ascent in an aircraft, you're actually reducing the pressure in your lungs, not increasing it.

I've got a good printer and Photoshop....give me 5 min and I'll make you a solo card from "Rita's School of Doin' it Right Divin'" :D It'll only cost ya a six pack of Sam Adams and dinner at Two Pesos....our checkout dive will consist of looking at little fish in an aquarium and making fun of...

For cheap, the Executive Inn works. It's not so horribly grimy that you're afraid to touch anything (i.e. toilets and sinks are clean, but I woudn't eat off the floor), and the sheets smell clean, but I always bring my own blanket and pillow, just in case! I think it's $35 a night for a double...

Sweet! Call me and let me know how it turned out; I'd definitely be up for a trip next weekend if it turns out to be worth the 4-5 hour drive.

OMG, Denise...I'm so glad you're OK now. That had to have been scary as hell.

Why wouldn't you get away with standing in front of the camera of a TV news crew? Do they have more of a right to be there than you do?

I know that if I were a drowning victim, the last thing I'd want was for a bunch of voyeuristic bystanders to whip out their cell phones and start recording my dying breath. There is a time and a place for everything, and that just isn't an appropriate time for the amateur YouTubers to start...
