I was just looking for a day off from work.

I suggest that NetDoc's birthday be made an International Holiday. The United Nations should issue a proclamation. Happy BDay, Doc!

Tobin, Will this work with the Cressi Archimedes II, or just the old model?

El O, et al., I appreciate your good intentions, and I also appreciate your having removed my unappreciated badge.

Ditto. Offering it as an option is fine. Imposing it without consent is not.

Naaa... I have a smoke or two at depth all the time.

To disagree, The Moevenpick and the Ghazala Gardens Hotels in Sharm, The Dahab Sea Resort and the central part of the town where there are many shops, restaurants, bars and guesthouses in Dahab, The Taba Hilton in Taba, these have been the recent (last three years) targets of terrorist bombings...

Super report, Doc. Yeah, THAT's the one I was waiting for!

No, that one (like many) is self-sealing. Air goes in the bottom, but doesn't come out. You use the relief valve to deflate it. The orange vs. yellow convention only seems to hold true in the UK and maybe elsewhere in the EU. In the rest of the world no such distinction is made.

I'm going over there to dive with her in September. I'LL be the judge of whether she can really dive! PADI She's not really dyslexic. It was just the (not so unusual) stuff with putting the BC on the wrong side of the tank, reg on the wrong side of the valve, BC upside-down, etc. I've seen it...

I got fills at Nitrox Express about four weeks ago. Their website seems to be gone, but you may want to check to see if they are open. (Very cheap fills!) Nitrox Express 1100 Barnett Dr. #10 Lake Worth, FL 33461 561-721-3483 1 block off of I-95

And once again, Andy takes the prize: See here.

I'm not going to address your questions (sorry), but, as a new student, I do want to emphasize to you that a computer does not measure the amount of nitrogen your body is absorbing or releasing. See Tollie's post above: And add the very important factor of staying well hydrated!

Yeah! Me too!! :D

Something you do want to do (as I understand it) is keep the viscosity of the blood thin and the volume of blood high. You do that by hydrating, hydrating, and hydrating some more!

Just one more thing. Right, the rates of off-gassing will all be different per the existing models. What were looking for is what is best. Remember the balancing act between off-gassing as quickly as possible, and not off-gassing so fast that we bubble more than the body can handle. The 60 to...

There's a lot of stuff here to cover, and I'm not going to come close to covering it all. I'll shotgun some answers in no particular order. (My usual disclaimer here: My understanding is WAY limited. I may be wrong. Correct me if I am.) Yes. It has everything to do with time and pressure. It...

Ron, I've been to the Zeagle factory. I've watched them building regs. You're wrong. Talk to them if you have any questions regarding their products. They are extremely approachable folks.

C'mon. Somebody's got to have an extra Helix they can send off to this special woman. (I dumped mine on my sister. She loves it. I didn't. I'll stick to a Cressi Archimede on one arm and an Ironman on the other.)
